Hi Thomas, Correct me if I am wrong but last time I checked the depth in Loan Wofl was the z axis.

I hardly learned much at primary school, which meant I was very much behind at secondary school. My primary school always used the excuse that because I am blind what's the use in teaching me anything, with the result that when I moved on to secondary school I could only do very basic five-year-old style addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. It took them years and years just to get me to understand fractions, decimals and percentages, let alone shapes, trigonometry and angles, which they could never really get started on with me.
