NAME
plw3d - Set up window for 3-d plotting
SYNOPSIS
plw3d(basex, basey, height, xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax, zmin, zmax, alt, az)
DESCRIPTION
Sets up a window for a three-dimensional surface plot within the currently defined two-dimensional
window. The enclosing box for the surface plot defined by xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax, zmin and zmax in user-
coordinate space is mapped into a box of world coordinate size basex by basey by height so that xmin maps
to -basex/2, xmax maps to basex/2, ymin maps to -basey/2, ymax maps to basey/2, zmin maps to 0 and zmax
maps to height. The resulting world-coordinate box is then viewed by an observer at altitude alt and
azimuth az. This routine must be called before plbox3(3plplot) or plot3d(3plplot). For a more complete
description of three-dimensional plotting see the PLplot documentation.
Redacted form: plw3d(basex, basey, height, xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax, zmin, zmax, alt, az)
This function is examples 8,11,18,21.
ARGUMENTS
basex (PLFLT, input)
The x coordinate size of the world-coordinate box.
basey (PLFLT, input)
The y coordinate size of the world-coordinate box.
height (PLFLT, input)
The z coordinate size of the world-coordinate box.
xmin (PLFLT, input)
The minimum user x coordinate value.
xmax (PLFLT, input)
The maximum user x coordinate value.
ymin (PLFLT, input)
The minimum user y coordinate value.
ymax (PLFLT, input)
The maximum user y coordinate value.
zmin (PLFLT, input)
The minimum user z coordinate value.
zmax (PLFLT, input)
The maximum user z coordinate value.
alt (PLFLT, input)
The viewing altitude in degrees above the XY plane.
az (PLFLT, input)
The viewing azimuth in degrees. When az=0, the observer is looking face onto the ZX plane, and as
az is increased, the observer moves clockwise around the box when viewed from above the XY plane.
