[Vis5d-users] VIS5D -Map

Hi,

I am a researcher at Illinois State Water Survey.  I used VIS5D to view a 
dataset of 2D gridded model output of the concentration of chemical 
species.  When in VIS5D,  first, I chose 'map' to be appeared.  When I 
selected the horizontal color contour for a chemical species, the map 
sometime disappeared depend on the domain selected.  How can I make MAP 
always on top of other displays (in 2D)?

I have an overall dataset of 79x51 grids for 48 variables.  When I select 
all data points the map would disappear when the color contour is 
selected.   So I experimented different size of domain area and found

test 1:
domain size from 79x51 to 40x51  --> color contour is 'on' without map
domain size at 39x51                      --> color contour is 'on' with map

test 2:
domain size > 29x26   --> color contour is 'on' with map
domain size at 28x26  --> color contour is 'on' without map

It seems like only within a range of number will the map stay appeared.  It 
will disappear when the total number of data points is either too large or 
too small.

I have try to increase the memory size using -mbs 500, but it still not 
working.  We a have 1GB RAM in our SUN workstation so I believe plenty of 
RAM is available (at least >128MB).  If you have solution on this, please 
let me know.

Thank you for your help.
