Well to clarify, the shape of the contained_by object is very clear (a box
or a sphere) in some points of the animations that I am working on. I'm
trying to find out if there are any ways to modify those shapes, which are
like a frame for the isosurface. Why you can't rotate or scale the
contained-by object independent of the isosurface itself or for that matter,
use other types of contained by shapes (cylinder, cone, etc.).
Anyone know?
thanks,
Dennis
