Right, but it is easy to pre-setting the isoview property. I add it into
the first example

As these function have quite different functionalities, I am not
convinced that it can be useful. The first one  animates y=f(t) for t
and the second animates f(x,t) for t.

Done, I also slightly modified the paramfplot2d and comet help pages to
make their respective role clearer (at least I hope so...)

Thanks for the remarks.
