Start in src/volume_grid_scalar_quantity.cpp, inspecting createIsosurfaceProgram() and registerIsosurfaceAsMesh(), where the MarchingCube calls and coordinate transformation are shown. Compare the grid-dimension ordering in both paths with the volume buffer layout. Done means volume-grid isosurfaces render with the correct orientation and cell ordering in both uses.

Description
Hi,
I've run into an issue with the isosurface generation for volume grid scalar quantities. The problem appears to be that the change made to fix the frame transformation for #253 wasn't propagated into the grid dimensions passed to the MarchingCube library, resulting in the grid cells being interpreted in the wrong order.
The following shows a volume grid of the Stanford Bunny and its isosurface visualization with the 2.2.1 release:
By swizzling the grid dimensions passed into MarchingCube we get the following (correct) result instead:
The patch for the above fix is:

I'm not sure how you prefer to manage the repo, but if you'd like me to open a PR for the fix I'm happy to. Thanks!
