Waterfall Page (3D Plot Properties Dialog Box)

Requires: Full Development System

Use this page of the 3D Plot Properties dialog box to specify the plot specific appearance of the 3D Waterfall graph environment.

This page includes the following components:

• Plot List—Lists the plots you can configure. Edit the list item text to update the plot name.
• Add—Adds a plot to the Plot List.
• Delete—Deletes the plot you select from the Plot List.
• Up—Moves a plot up the list.
• Down—Moves a plot down the list.
• General—Select from the following components to specify the general appearance of the 3D graph:
  • Plot opacity(%)—Specifies the level of opacity of the color you apply to the plot. Opacity ranges from 0 to 100, where 100 is completely opaque.
  • Coordinate system—Configures the coordinate system on which to display the 3D plot.
    • Cartesian—Displays the graph on Cartesian plane lines.
    • Cylindrical—Displays the graph on the cylindrical coordinate plane.
    • Spherical—Displays the graph on the spherical coordinate plane.
• Projection—Select from the following components to specify the projection appearance on the 3D graph:
  • X-Y plane projection—Displays the plot projection on the X-Y plane.
  • X-Z plane projection—Displays the plot projection on the X-Z plane.
  • Y-Z plane projection—Displays the plot projection on the Y-Z plane.
• Color Ramp—Select from the following components to specify the color ramp appearance on the 3D Waterfall graph:
  • Color map style—Sets the color map of the waterfall lines. You also can use the Plot Specific:Waterfall:Waterfall Color Ramp property to set the color map programmatically.
    • None—Sets no style for the color ramp. Choose this option if you want the graph to be one color.
    • Shaded—Sets the style of the color on the color ramp to go from light to dark.
    • Color spectrum—Sets the style of the color ramp to be the colors in the color spectrum.
    • Grey scale—Sets the style of the color ramp to a grey scale.
    • Custom—Sets the style of the color ramp based on the style you configure in the Color Ramp Editor.
  • Edit—Displays the Color Ramp Editor so you can modify the color ramp.
• Waterfall—Select from the following components to specify the waterfall appearance of the 3D Waterfall graph:
  • Waterfall mode—Sets the display mode to use to show a different waterfall graph. You also can use the Plot Specific:Waterfall:Waterfall Mode property to set the mode programmatically.
    • Lines—Displays the graph with the lines from the axes behind the graph.
    • Slices—Displays the graph with chromatic slices on the X-Y plane.
  • Line style—Specifies the style of the waterfall lines. You also can use the Plot Specific:Waterfall:Waterfall Line Style property to set the line style programmatically.
  • Line width—Specifies the width of the waterfall lines. You also can use the Plot Specific:Waterfall:Waterfall Line Width property to set the line width programmatically.
  • Anti-aliasing—Uses anti-aliasing to show the waterfall lines. You also can use the Plot Specific:Waterfall:Waterfall Line Anti-aliasing property to set the anti-aliasing programmatically.
