Hi,

To give the Edge one color (the Klein Bottle has red only), you can do:

<< Graphics`
gr = SphericalPlot3D[2, {theta, 0, Pi}, {phi, 0, 2 Pi}]
Show[Insert[gr, EdgeForm[Hue[0.3]], {1, 1}]]

I hope this helps.
I do not know how to make Hue a ColorFunction here where the color
depends on the coordinates.



Regards,
Bernd
