Out of curiosity, what exactly about the GUI needs to be 3D?

Well, thanks to your painstaking assistance that GUI was improved and
extended in many respects.
My supervisor plans to have some more work done with the GUI and
needs to have a cost estimate to include in his badget.
Since I am now assigned to other tasks, he is looking for an
experienced GUI developer that can quickly carry out the remaining
tasks:
- upgrade the current GUI to the latest Tcl/Tk version
- integrate Blt or any other Tcl/Tk extension library that allows for
rotated texts
- save canvas images to a compact PS format (the current one takes
too much space) and/or high-quality PDF
- transform the current 2-D GUI into a 3-D through Qt and OpenGL or
whatever other tool you deem appropriate
Besides the above tasks there may follow many other ones as my
supervisors gets carried away by the greed to add more and more
features... from my experience.
He would like to know roughly the cost per year or per month of a
programmer that has 10+ years' experience to plan for the next fiscal
year and eventually an extimate of the time necessary to complete the
above listed activities.
Fermilab is located in Batavia (IL) which is a suburb of Chicago
(about 40 minutes' drive from O'Hare airport)


I mean visualization of volumes rather than surfaces generated by
intersecting volumes with plains. Keeping for volume visualizations
all the features that now work for surface (view ) visualization.
