DESIGN (xvisual) functions
LIBRARY ROUTINE
xvw_create_plot3d - create a 3D plot object
LIBRARY CALL
xvobject xvw_create_plot3d(
xvobject parent,
char *name)
INPUT
- parent - the parent object; NULL will cause a
default toplevel to be created automatically
- name - a name for this particular instance of the 3D plot
object (for use in app-defaults files, etc)
OUTPUT
none
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).
