From the polymarker(3G) man page: marker_color can be used to set the color of markers, but every marker in a single polymarker is still the same color. It would be possible to follow each marker color with a single point marker, but with a large loss in performance. Another way to do points besides move/draws is single pixel block_writes. If you are willing to work in a 2d space, this may be a faster solution. At HP-UX 8.0 a polypoint primitives was added. It does support color per vertex, but is only supported on the Turbo VRX. I know of no plans to support it on other current devices. John Lang HP-UTD Fort Collins, CO Any opinions are mine, HP will listen to them if it wants to.
