Sadly, no. When I added the code to VMD, I was able to figure out
the coordinate information for the triangles comprising the surface,
but not the potentials. All it can do, as Justin said, it use solid
color for the whole surface. Even then, the color can only be
set once, during load time, and via the Tcl interface. At the
time, VMD wasn't very good at supporting non-molecular structure
inputs like surfaces and densities so that was about the best I
could do in my free time.
