I downloaded the file from ames.arc.nasa.gov (I'm pretty sure that was it) and there are a few example files but I can't get it to work for me. I just want to plot arbitrary (x,y,z) points. Is there some kind of sorting order that they must be in? From the GLASS.DAT example, it looks like the data needs to have the same number of points in the x & y dimenesions... I've tried playing with 'set samples' and 'set isosamples'... Firstly, gnuplot is *not* a GNU project program. the name is coincidental and was chosen a long time ago. the 3d extensions to gnuplot are not officially part of gnuplot (yet). the support you probably have is the original work and really lacked in a lot of ways. gnuplot version 3 is currently being tested and improved and includes support for 3d that is quite good. and it will document it. check your documentation to see where to send gnuplot related questions. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Vick Khera, Gradual Student/Systems Guy Department of Computer Science ARPA: khera@cs.duke.edu Duke University UUCP: ...!mcnc!duke!khera Durham, NC 27706 (919) 660-6528
