Tab Delimited Data directly into 3D Scatter Plot

Greetings, I just purchased DPlot and have been very impressed with the versatility of the tool. I've used Excel as my primary data analysis and graphing tool for more years than I care to admit and bought DPlot specifically to create 3D Scatter Plots.

I see where I can create a 2D (xy) plot directly from the tab separated data, but not a 3D Scatter Plot. Can you provide some guidance on this?

Thanks,

Mark

Mark,
I'm assuming you're opening a file. If not please tell me exactly what you're doing.

For a file, select File>Open, then "K 3D or 4D...". On the Open dialog check the "Scatter plot" checkbox.

I also see where I can create a surface contour plot from the CSV data (File Type K), but no option for a 3D Scatter plot. - Mark

Ah, now I see it. Thanks very much! and yes, I was opening a file. Mark
