Thanks Ken. This says that the clamping limits curved_size
to be either 2 or 3 with your data set. And you may only
see a subtle difference between these two. I cannot recall
why we clamped it to be at least 2. You might try modifying
this clamping statement to allow curved_size to be 1, and
see what happens. I haven't worked much with VisAD the past
couple years, so if this continues to be a problem we may
have to wait for Tom Rink's return (safe trip, Tom).

Cheers,
Bill
