After applying mapping coordinates to the *liquid* (assuming the tube is transparent, like glass) *during lofting*, Brian, one could use a combination of Opacity, Texture, and even a Bump (SXP?) map to simulate many kinds of movement thru the tube. I'm not intimate with the project, so I couldn't comment on what would specifically be the proper way to get the appropriate effect in this case. That being said, the Schreiber Python PXP sure sounds interesting, and may replace this sort of procedure for many applications. -Alan
