AddSurfaceDataMap Method
The AddSurfaceDataMap method adds a 3D surface data map to an existing 3D graph, equivalent to Graph | Add to Graph | Plot. Returns an AutoSurfaceDataMap object.
Syntax
object.AddSurfaceDataMap( worksheet, xCol, yCol, zCol, xAxis, yAxis, zAxis, id )
| Parameter | Type | Description |
| worksheet | String | required, data's full path and file name |
| xCol | Variant | optional, default = 1 (column A) |
| yCol | Variant | optional, default = 2 (column B) |
| zCol | Variant | optional, default = 3 (column C) |
| xAxis | Variant | optional, ID of X axis to use for plot (default = uses first X axis in graph) |
| yAxis | Variant | optional, ID of Y axis to use for plot (default = uses first Y axis in graph) |
| zAxis | Variant | optional, ID of Z axis to use for plot (default = uses first Z axis in graph) |
| id | Variant | optional, plot name |
Remarks
3D graphs can only be added to other 3D graphs.
Example
This example shows how to add a surface data map.
Graph.AddSurfaceDataMap(GrapherApp.Path + "\samples\demogrid.dat")
