Posted - 02/10/2008 : 7:04:15 PM Hey everybody,
I don't know if there is already a topic in this forum, 'cause couldn't find anything else for my problem...
Well, I have following problem (they are all in a worksheet): I have a column with datas of wavelength, and many columns with peak-values (should be Z in Origin). Each column of the peak-values stands for a time like column2 for 10ns, column3 for 20 ns.
With this informations about wavelengths (x axis), timestamps (y-axis) and these many peak-values (z-axis) I want to depict it in a 3D surface (waterfall, what else).
I'm afraid, I couldn't manage it! So I would be very thankful if somebody can help me with this problem!
Thanks a lot!

Posted - 02/11/2008 : 11:43:02 AM To create a 3D waterfall plot, your data is already organized. You can just add the timestamp as the long name for each column. Then highlight your XYY data and choose Plot:3D XYY:3D Waterfall.
If you wish to create a surface plot, you need to convert your data to a matrix. Select Worksheet:Convert to Matrix:Direct. Set 'Data Format' to "Y across columns" and 'Y Values' to "First Row". (Of course you first needed to add the time stamps as the first row of data in the worksheet.
