Hi, Jack ! thanks a lot for your suggestion.

Unfortunately my my shader/glsl skills are very limited and so is the 
documentation of [mesh_square] or [glsl_vertex]...

[mesh_square]-help just says:
"This object is usefull when working with vertex_shader."

do you (or anybody here) know any example patches that demonstrate the 
approach to creating an arbitrary plane with [mesh_square] ?

(the GLSL example patches don't really seem to be pointing that out.)

i also tried the geometry help patch from GEM examples, but this gives 
me an error:

[glsl_geometry]: compile Info_log:
[glsl_geometry]: ERROR: 0:17: 'gl_VerticesIn' : undeclared identifier
