Don, I can confirm what you are seeing, but it is not Java 7 / Java 3D (which is good b/c this would be a more difficult problem to solve). I did the following experiment. I ran IDV 4.1 with Java 6 / J3D 1.5 and compared your bundle with IDV 4.1 with Java 7 / J3D 1.6. In both cases, the contours you describe below display fine. This rules out Java 7 / J3D 1.6 problems. There has been work on the contours since IDV 4.1. I bet we could probably isolate the emergence of this problem with a particular check in of the VisAD library. We will have to keep you posted.
