Kit,
I know this may not be high priority, but the 3d wireframe or scatterplots should be rotatable and evolvable so we can examine from the angles that are masked by the original perspective. This is an important aspect of the 3d graphics, particularly when dealing with space-time models.
Thanks,
Bob
