The G3D Procedure

Example 2: Rotating a Surface Plot

Procedure Features
PLOT statement options:

CBOTTOM=
CTOP=
GRID
ROTATE=
YTICKNUM=
ZMAX=
ZMIN=
ZTICKNUM=

Data set: REFLIB.HAT
Sample library member: GR29N02

[IMAGE]

This example rotates the surface plot that is shown in Generating a Simple Scatter Plot and enhances its axes by adding reference lines and increasing the number of tick marks on the y and z axes. It also raises the plot above the horizontal x-y plane.
