NAME

       plstring3 - Plot a glyph at the specified 3D points

SYNOPSIS

       plstring3(n, x, y, z, string)

DESCRIPTION

       Plot  a  glyph  at  the specified 3D points. (Supersedes plpoin3(3plplot) because many[!] more glyphs are
       accessible with plstring3(3plplot).) Set up the call to  this  function  similar  to  what  is  done  for
       plline3(3plplot).  The  glyph  is  specified with a PLplot user string.  Note that the user string is not
       actually limited to one glyph so it is possible (but not normally useful) to plot more than one glyph  at
       the  specified  points  with this function.  As with plmtex(3plplot) and plptex(3plplot), the user string
       can contain FCI escapes to determine the font, UTF-8 code to determine the glyph or else  PLplot  escapes
       for Hershey or unicode text to determine the glyph.

       Redacted form: plstring3(x, y, z, string)

       This function is used in example 18.

ARGUMENTS

       n (PLINT(3plplot), input)
              Number of points in the x, y, and z vectors.

       x (PLFLT_VECTOR(3plplot), input)
              A vector containing the x coordinates of the points.

       y (PLFLT_VECTOR(3plplot), input)
              A vector containing the y coordinates of the points.

       z (PLFLT_VECTOR(3plplot), input)
              A vector containing the z coordinates of the points.

       string (PLCHAR_VECTOR(3plplot), input)
              A UTF-8 character string containing the glyph(s) to be plotted at each of the n points. points.
