Not withoug more information. The problem with iwrap=1 is that it
implements only the simplest form of imaging, and is much less "smart"
than is autoimage. (Dan Roe has put in lots of effort to make autoimage
work as well as it does. Even so, there are times when users have to
use the "image" command itself, and select all the options by hand.)
There is really no good reason (in my view) to even have the iwrap=1
option anymore. It served a purpose a decade ago, and still (I admit)
can be useful for very simple simulations. But I'm not the best person
to answer your original question, since I never use that option myself.
