The 3D Surface Toolbar
Table 4-31. 3D Surface toolbar commands.
| Icon | Command | Key | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
 | Graph 3D -> Add/Remove Curve | Alt-C | Opens the Add/Remove Curves... dialog, allowing easy addition or removal of curves to/from the active 3D plot window. |
 | Graph 3D -> New 3D Surface Plot ... | Opens the Define surface plot dialog, allowing the addition of an analytical surface to the active 3D plot window. | |
 | Graph 3D -> New 3D Parametric Surface Plot ... | Adds a new parametric surface to the active 3D plot window. Opens the Define surface plot dialog and with the Surface type preset to Parametric. | |
 | Graph 3D -> New Legend | Ctrl-L | Adds a new legend object to the active 3D plot window. |
 | Graph 3D -> Add Text... | Shift-T | Adds a new text object to the active 3D plot window after a left click from the user at the desired position. |
 | Graph 3D -> Add Color Scale | Adds a new color scale object to the active 3D plot window after a left click from the user at the desired position. | |
 | Graph 3D -> Rescale To Show All | Ctrl-Shift-R | Rescales the active 3D plot after a change of scales operation so that all data on the graph is visible. |
 | Graph 3D -> Enabled axes -> No axes | Disables drawing of the axes and of the planes containing them. | |
 | Graph 3D -> Enabled axes -> Frame | Draw only the three axes. | |
 | Graph 3D -> Enabled axes -> Box | Draw the three axes and the 3D box around the plot. | |
 | Graph 3D -> Enabled axes -> 1/2 Box (Right) | Draws the three axes of the active 3D plot and three of the planes containing them: the right plane, the back plane and the floor. | |
 | Graph 3D -> Enabled axes -> 1/2 Box (Left) | Draws the three axes of the active 3D plot and three of the planes containing them: the left plane, the back plane and the floor. | |
 | Graph 3D -> Show grids -> Front Grid | Draw a grid on the front plane. | |
 | Graph 3D -> Show grids -> Back Grid | Draw a grid on the back plane. | |
 | Graph 3D -> Show grids -> Right Grid | Draw a grid on the right plane. | |
 | Graph 3D -> Show grids -> Left Grid | Draw a grid on the left plane. | |
 | Graph 3D -> Show grids -> Ceiling Grid | Draw a grid on the top plane. | |
 | Graph 3D -> Show grids -> Floor Grid | Draw a grid on the floor plane. | |
 | Graph 3D -> Enable perspective | Enables/Disables the 3D perspective mode. | |
 | Graph 3D -> Reset rotation | Resets the rotation of the 3D plot to the default values. | |
 | Graph 3D -> Fit frame to window | Finds the best layout of the 3D plot fitting the window size. It readjusts the length of the axis ticks to a default value. | |
 | Graph 3D -> Animation | Enables/Disables animation. |
