Hello Chuck

Thank you very much for the helpful response.

My version was the one that is available by default at the Trusty Tahr's
repositories (4.0.1) and in that one, there was no SetRepresentationType. I
tried with qDisplay.Representation="Volume" (following your formalism) but
no matter what I tried in that version, the minute I was switching the
representation the whole thing was coming down.

I downloaded the latest binary and it worked immediately.


All the best
AA
