RETURN VALUE

Returns the created 3D plot xvobject, or NULL upon failure

DESCRIPTION

A 3D plot object is used to display a 3D plot. A variety of plot types are supported, including line plots, mesh plots, scatter plots, 2D and 3D contour plots, impulse plots, horizon plots, wireframe plots, and shaded plots.

Ideally, the 3D plot object would be used in conjunction with a 3D axis object, where both were created as children of an area object so that a coordinated world coordinate view is automatically supported. Unfortunately, the 3D axis object has not yet been developed (sorry, folks).
