In ArcScene,  the interactive "Create Contour" tool of 3D Analyst does not create a contour.  It works for a TIN derived from the same raster.  It works for the same raster in ArcMap. Toolbox/Raster Surface/Contour works just fine. Any ideas?

It says 

Interactive 3D Analyst tools in ArcScene

The interactive tools on the 3D Analyst toolbar in ArcScene can be used on a TIN or raster surface:

but there are some sublinks. Like the obvious... toggle on the 3D analyst, but check just in case something applies in your case

I think I'd already found/followed the advice you pointed me to (thanks!), but to no avail.
