For Kaeru Gaman

Kaeru  for what you wanted put a clock statement in the color_map
position 

#declare Radial_Texture =
texture {
  pigment {
    radial
    color_map {
      [0 rgbft <0,0.7,0,0,0>]
      [0.074 rgbft <0,0.7,0,0,0>]
      [0.21 rgbft <0.889,0.889,0.889,0,0.889>]
      [0.242 rgbft <1,1,1,0,1>]
      [1 rgbft <1,1,1,0,1>]
    }
  }
}

Looks like the scan-line for a radar screen :)

I take it that's what you were aiming for, then? (I haven't had a chance to 
read every post on the server yet)

No I was illustrating an alternative method of showing a clock type
object. The original thread is in p.g (povray.general) called "Slice
in a Sphere". For a radar sweep you would need to narrow the opaque
section of the colour map and maybe change the colour to filter = 1.
As you would want the targets to be highlighted when the beam passes
over them.  
There are an awful lot of posts going back a long time.

Ah. Well, it would also make a good radar screen :) One of those "Hey, it 
does something else, too!" results :)

Yep, even some way back when I first played with with beziers exported from 
Moray many years ago. And then sadly ran out of time to do much more :(
