d.3d in lat/lon mapset

Hi, I'm having trouble using d.3d in a lat/lon mapset:
If I run d.3d interactively, I can get a plot. If I then use
the viewing coordinates as displayed by interactive d.3d as
inputs to non-interactive d.3d, I get nothing displayed.
Actually, it looks like a small point is displayed at the center
of the screen, as if the observer was _very_ far from the map.

Has anybody encountered this before? I've never had a problem
using the same techniques in an Albers e.a. conic mapset.

Thanks,

And I have had a similar problem with both 4.0 and 4.1 (hoped it
had been fixed by now). For small areas in lat long, the data
entry page does not seem to accept the very small values needed
for resolution - so it cant display. In 4.0 we kluged the
program to divide the value input by 100 before plotting - this
worked but was a pain. Is there another solution?
