Hi,
using my code with Mathematica 6 you *get* what you want.
You cant do that with version 5, because in version 5 the
contour lines/polygons generated form the sampled function.
The conversion to Graphics[] will not help, because the
polygons are not convex, and Mathematica 5 can't render
non-convex polygons in 3d.
Regards
Jens
