Mathematica Drawing Bug
Posted: Sun Jan 25, 2009 2:25 pm
When solving my last Problem on ProjectEuler I tried to plot the solution
with mathematica using:
Unfortunately I get the following buggy result:

It disappears, if i change the Opacity of the constant function from
Opacity[0.4] to Opacity[1.0], so the bug occurs only when working with opacity,
changing the output formats or anything else won't help.
Without the Opacity it doesn't look really good.
As I write many reports and tutorials I am in need of a good 3d and 2d plotting software
which produces really beautiful plots.
Is there such a solution which costs below 5.000 US$?
It should support Anti-Aliasing ,high resolution Images, opacity and coloring functions.
Or is there a method to make Mathematica plot it?
The bug occurs at both, the Mathematica 6.0 version I have at home and the 7.0 version I can
access at work (will update soon).
Thank you a lot
