other than a GDFILE definition, which i assume you have covered, the above 
should work.  i've attached a tested file mark.nts, using the NAM shortcut for 
GDFILE, which you should load into gdplot3 with the command "restore mark.nts" 
(assuming the file is in the current working directory).

also attached is a gif of what I see.  can you confirm?
