Hi there,
a new bie question. I have data in the following format. 6 columns of 100 data points each.
col A is X and col B is correxponding y,
col C is x and col D is corresponding y,
col E is x and col F is cooresponsing y.
I have this data from 3 different set of experiments : col A,B from first set with a parameter say P1, Col C,D from second experiment with parameter P2=P1+ constt2.and Col E,F from third experiment with parameter
P3=P2+constant2. I wish to generate a 3d plot. plotting ColA,B as x,y at parameter1, and then colC,D as x,y (in same graph) at parameter2 and colE,F as x,y (same graph)at parameter3. I could not plot it in the same figure. Anyone who has done this before can help me!! I am using origin version 5.0..
thanks in advance.

Hi,
There are at least two options using Origin 5.0. The easiest is to make sure your worksheet column names and designations are A(X),B(Y),C(X),D(Y),E(X), and F(Y), highlight all six columns, and then select the Plot:3D Charts:Bars, Ribbons, Walls, or Waterfall menu item from the Origin menu. This will create a 3D plot of the three parameter levels. Parameter levels in this type of graph are not spatially scaled rather they are identified by column name and are equally spaced.
If your solution requires that parameter levels be spatially scaled then you will need to create multiple XYZ Scatter plots in the same 3D layer. You will need to add 3 Z columns to your worksheet so that your column names and designations are similar to A(X),B(Y),G(Z),C(X),D(Y),H(Z),E(X),F(Y), and I(Z) where the Z columns contain the respective parameter levels. To create multiple XYZ Scatter plots in the same 3D layer go to Originlab's On-line Knowledge Database, search on the keywords "XYZ Scatter", and follow the steps in the database item titled "Creating Multiple 3D XYZ Scatter Plots in the Same Layer of a Graph Window."
I Hope this helps.
-Gary
