Hi Dominik,

I'm calling Display.getImage() on a 3D-Display and I finally got to return a

Indeed, the view should be exactly the same as the current view.

The Test51 example in the visad/examples folder uses the getImage() method
to capture images from a 3D display. When the display is rotated, the image
updates. Does this example behave properly on your machine?
