Great!

Thanks both of you.

I will get back with some nice screenshots of ST_3DShortesline on
polyhedralsurfaces when I get some extra time and things are running.


BTW, will the 3D extension understand the geometry type
polyhedralsurface or do I have to use ST_Dump to get a bunch of 3D
polygons instead?


Thanks again

Nicklas
