The "dublicate" thread came from me, incidentally. I attach it here again.
Remember that it will appear under the Tool menu and not with the othe

Otherwise, hmm... I have no ready solution for the bread structure. It seems
so simple (I was thinking also about bump maps or something) but it isn't.
Would an isosurface do the job I wonder? Alternatively, a heightfield from
the photograph?
