Ok, maybe RegionPlot is the way, but something more like:

RegionPlot3D[
 z > Sin[Pi*x*y] && z < Cos[Pi*x*y], {x, -1, 1}, {y, -1, 1}, {z, -1, 
  1},
 Mesh -> None, PlotStyle -> Opacity[.5]]

Hi,

and

RegionPlot3D[
  z > Sin[Pi*x*y] && z < Cos[Pi*x*y], {x, -1, 1}, {y, -1, 1}, {z, -1,
   1}]

does not help ??

Regards
