I have been working on an applet which runs inside of the notebook and that will provide interactive graphics capabilities. If you have a recent version of Java installed on your machine (http://java.com) and would like to try a demo version of the applet, open a new worksheet, paste the following code into a cell, and execute it: html('<applet id="mathrider" code="org.mathrider.MathRider.class"width="800" height="650" codebase="http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/tkosan/mathrider/"archive="mathrider.jar"; MAYSCRIPT></applet>') When the applet comes up, play with the 2D and 3D images (the 3D image can be rotated by dragging it with the mouse.) to see if they are close to what you are looking for. This demo version of the applet does not talk to the SAGE server, but the version I am working does.
