Can one do real time rotations of 3d objects (say a cloud of points) under the control of a mouse? --- yup, AVS can do that with ease. Can one do real-time selection of color tables under the control of a mouse? ---- yup, AVS can do that with ease. Can AVS be used to make journal quality pictures, say a color surface rendering with various axes labeled using mathematical symbols? Do people use AVS for this purpose, say as a replacement for NCAR graphics or DISSPLA? ---- yup, AVS can do that Does AVS use some device independent representation for high resolution plots? If so, what representation does it use? ---- if you consider an image a plot, yup, AVS can do that. if this is all that you require, avs does all it very well. -terry
