G3D Procedure

Example 1: Generating A Surface Plot

Features:

PLOT statement

Sample library member: GTDSURFA
This surface plot reveals the shape of a generated data set named LAKE. The axes are scaled to include all data values. Each axis is labeled with the name or label of the corresponding variable. The tick marks on the axes are divided into three even intervals. The horizontal plane is rotated 70° around the Z axis. The graph is tilted 70 degrees toward you. The colors are derived from the ODS style.
