Greetings!

I've been trying to make animations of Tachyon raytraced 3d plots, so
that people can see a plot from multiple angles without java. (It
could also be used to visualise a forth dimension...) None of my
attempts have worked....

The best strategy I've had was:

sage: b = parametric_plot3d((u^2, v, u*v), [u, -1, 1], [v, -1, 1],
viewer='tachyon')
sage: animate([b.rotateY( 2*pi*(j/6) ) for j in range(6)])

But that didn't work either... I seem to be over my head in the
internal magic of sage. Can someone help me?


My guess is that since http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/2872 has been merged, the above code will work in sage 4.3.3. Does anyone have an alpha they can try it in? You might have to fiddle with the viewer='tachyon' bit, though.

Thanks,

Jason
