Hi Michelle,
The 3D plot is saved in the same fashion as the other plots.
It works by painting the window that we can see to an invisible window
in memory. The image is then extracted from the invisible window and
written to a file.
The problem is caused when the window is painted in memory. 3D graphics
are a little more complex and are implemented in a different way.
In the previous version this worked because I used visad utilities to
extract the image, rather than doing it manually. I changed this so we
could have nicer titles and plot information stored on the image.
I'll add this to my bug list. It can be fixed with a bit of mucking
around. Although the 3D Graphics are a little unreliable, primarily
because of the older laptops and the java3D/Visad packages.
As a workaround, The plot can easily be copied to the clipboard by
selecting the window, and pressing Alt+PrintScrn. This is a standard
windows command. It will copy the selected window to the clipboard. It
can then be pasted into Word, Photoshop etc and then saved manually.
Hope this helps,
Cheers,
Oliver
