Thank you for your reply.
In this graphics context, I'm not sure what the incident or reflected
light rays are.
May I ask for an example of using a colour key with the volcano data
using the colours that appear when you select the shade option?
It is simple to have the colour key appear using drape. Perhaps it is
not so simple to have a colour key using shade colours or different
colours. Once again, may I ask for an example of setting these colour
key and/or colour options?
Thanks,
Karim
