Thanks for the correction, and sorry about the misinformation.

I tried applying displacement in PoseRay, to both .3ds and .obj imports.  It
seems though that the Blender displacement function allowed a more precise
displacement.  The object that I used was a mesh with a uv mapping of a line
drawing, just sharply defined black and white lines.  Blender allowed the black
lines to be raised in relief in a sharply defined and distinct way.  I don't
know if I tried it correctly in PoseRay, but my results showed a general,
nondescript relief.

How is it possible to obtain a similar effect using isosurfaces?
