I was playing around with plotting volumes of revolution for calculus.  My opinion is that the defaults for Student[Calculus1][VolumeOfRevolution] could be improved by a couple simple changes.  My hope is that the people here can make my plots better to give Maplesoft a good idea of how to change the defaults.  

The standard code and output are

Student[Calculus1][VolumeOfRevolution](x+2,x^2+1,x=0..1,output=plot);

Changing the surface style to patch and the surfce colors to different colors creates a plot that I find easier to interpret.

What do you think about getting the defaults changed?  I hope someone can give better suggestions for the plot defaults.
