I see, thanks! I’m not used to an isosurface being used in this way (shows you what I know about it!).

The representation is set to a specific isosurface (i.e., + or - phase when there is a node). To see both phases in the VMD window (a la figure 2) you can create two representations, one set to the + phase and the other to - phase; color by ColorID, setting one to 0-blue and the other to 1-red.
