BTW, in page 196 of "The Mathematica Graphics Book - Cameron Smith & Nancy Blanchman - 1995", (for v 2.2), there is the following function which relates 'BoxRatios to ViewPoint' vprange[br_] := ({-1, 1} #) & /@ (b r/(2.0 Max[br])) Print["for box ratios ", N[#], " The view point is ", vprange[#]] & /@ {{1, 1, .4}, {1, 1, 1}, {1, 2, 1/2}}; I found this function while trying to extract the ViewPoint (resulting) setting on a 3D plot after having manipulate it interactively. I wanted to restore the point view to a convenient "starting" setting by clicking on an ad-hoc reset button. I could not spend much time on it since I was unable to make it work and thought that something had been changed since 1995. Any suggestion would be appreciate. Regards.
