Re: interpolation functions

If you have a Gridded3DSet with manifold dimension = 2, it
will be displayed as surface using texture mapping. This
will sub-sample the surface geometry, unless you call:

  GraphicsModeControl mode = display.getGraphicsModeControl();
  mode.setTextureEnable(false);

This will disable texture mapping.

Cheers,
Bill
