plotscatter3d           Create a 3D scatter plot

 

file format: ASCII space separated columns.

USAGE: plot scatter 3d

        .Input file: datacolumns001
        [Enter name of input file. This can be a document file or any other 
        file containing data columns. Since it is not special for document 
        files, column 1 in a traditional document file will need to be addressed
        as column 3 in this program. The columns can be white space separated
        of by a character that can be specified, e.g. comma.]
        
        .Column separator: ,
        [If anything else but whitespace separates the column, specify the 
        separator here. Otherwise hit return.]
        
        .Postscript file: Scatterplot001.ps
        [Enter postscript file name. It is recommended to specify the extension
         for easier usage later.]
         
        .X-label text: abscissa
        .Y-label text: second coordinate
        .Z-label text: z-direction
        [Enter the labels that will be printed along the axis. Defaults are
         X,Y and Z.]
         
        .X-range (exampl 1:100): -50:60
        .Y-range (exampl 1:100): -10:45
        .Z-range (exampl 1:100): -0.1,0.5
        [Specify the range of the values for scaling of the axis. If no
         values are provided the plot will be autoscaled.]
        
        .font size multiplier : 10
        [Specify if you need larger fonts.]
        
        .X-column, Y-column, z-column,labelcolumn: 1,2,3,1
        [Enter which columns should be used for plotting. Answers are in the
         order: x-coordinate, y-coordinate and z-coordinate followed by the
         column that should be used to label the points.]

        .Multipliers for X,Y,Z: 1,1,1
        [If you like to scale the input values, specify this here.]
