  • $\begingroup$ Right. I think the answer is: "no, that capability is not explicitly supported", although I am not so certain of that that I wanted to put it in my answer - particularly, given V9's new capabilities. Thus, my answer addresses the simplest way I know of to go from a rho, phi, theta expression to a region plot. $\endgroup$ Commented Dec 16, 2012 at 16:05

    $\begingroup$ Thanks. I don't have 9 yet, but perhaps I will download it for this capability. Really too bad that the 3D graphics set is not symmetric around usual choices of coordinate systems. $\endgroup$ Commented Dec 16, 2012 at 16:27
  • $\begingroup$ @rogerl I had the same interpretation of your question as Nasser. Is that indeed what you intended? $\endgroup$ Commented Dec 16, 2012 at 16:55
  • $\begingroup$ Yes, that is what I intended. I think this answer is responsive to the intent of my question. $\endgroup$ Commented Dec 16, 2012 at 17:48
  • $\begingroup$ @rogerl Clearly, the situation could be better. It should be possible, at least, to draw mesh lines that are indicative to your chosen coordinate system. Would that be of interest? $\endgroup$ Commented Dec 16, 2012 at 17:53
