                       Dear All,
  I would like to insert an intersection surface into a 3D scatter plot to a given value of the Z axis. I tried to look for a solution to it in Origin Help, but I could not.
  Anyone could help?
  Thank is advance!

                       Hi Roncesvalles,
  I think that adding the second XY plane at a specific Z position is the easiest way to achieve that.  Please try the following:
  1) Open the Plot Details dialog by double-clicking the plot, and select the layer level branch(Layer1)      at the left panel. 2) Select Plane tab, and turn ON the grey-out XY check box, select "At Position=" from Position       dropdown, and enter the Z value to place the plane. Also, you can specify the color of the plane,       and its transparency, if you like. Click OK. 
  There are other approaches like adding a plane surface plot, or a plane function plot; but the added  surface is an XY flat plane, the above method should be suffice.
  Hope this does what you expected.

  Dear Hideo Fuji,
  First o all, thank You for Your help!
  Is it possible, that this position option is not available in the student/academic version of OriginPro2017?  I have only line, symbol, drop lines, error bar and label option. 
  Best regards, Roncesvalles |

                       Hi Roncesvalles,
  You need to select "Layer1" branch in the left panel of the Plot Details dialog; or, you could open it by selecting the "Format: Layer Porperties" menu.
