Just wanted to clip off one half of an isosurface using
clipped_by { plane { x,0 } }
in order to be able to see the inside surface.
However, this does not work. All the rays which enter the isosurface
through the clipped-by plane just go right through the (back) surface
leaving it invisible.
Just wondering if this is a bug and/or how to work around it.

Without being an isosurface expert, I think you can achive what you want
if you edit contained_by?
Something like this:
contained_by{box{<-10,-10,-10>,<0,10,10>}}

Not a bug, just the way iso's are. You will need to add all_intersections to
the isosurface before the clipped_by. Or try max_trace 2, or more. It's just
not getting the rays traced to the back surface.

Ah, that's great!
all_intersections does the trick.
Thanks, it now looks exactly the way I want it.
