I've been on the forum looking for a good 3D graph example and found several, mostly CWGrah3D.  But no matter how I try to wire my arrays into the graph I can't get my data to look as expected.  I decided to make a drawing and hopefully someone could help out.  I don't need to display arrows (there are there to make the drawing more understandable...I hope) but a 2D curve or surface plot would be helpful to visualize areas that have low throughput, possibly using the color intensity examples I've seen.

I'd us a parametric plot if you want a surface.
When working with paramteric plots you specify a set of points that are described by a triplet of X,Y,Z.
There is seperate array for the X values Y values and Z.
It wants a 2-d array so it knows which points to connect. Adjacent point will be connected.
If you just want three line, then use a unique plot number for each trace.

I put this <a href="http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&amp;view=by_date_ascending&amp;message.id=144155#M144155" target="_blank">worse case 3d plot example </a>together in the hopes someone would learn from it some day (starts at reply #7). I am holding my breath that you may just be the one. Have fun and please post some cool pictures.

Ben,
&nbsp;
I saw this post already very cool.&nbsp; I just got hung up on cartesian vs polar graphing, and what format the CWPlot3D should be in.&nbsp; I already learned that I have alot to learn;)&nbsp; -SS

Ben,
OK I never knew about the error stacker...Does that count?&nbsp; -SS
