I'm trying to add labels to all of my datapoints in a 3D scatter xyz plot.
For 2D scatter plots I'm using the "Layer n" option and then "Plot Associations" to add the labels.
For the 3D scatter plot the "Plot Associations" field is shaded.
How can I label my datapoints in a 3D scatter plot?

Cheers

Hi,
Thank you for the hint. The issue discussed in the mentioned forum is dealing with labeling a z-value at each datapoint.

My issue is to add text labels to the 3D scatter plot! I have a matrix with 4 columns (x,y,z,label), when I'm creating the 3D scatter plot I can only select the 3 columns x,y and z. The label column is not accepted for this selection. How can I add this text labels to each datapoint in the 3D scatter plot?

Thank you for your help!

Cheers,
Rudolf

Hi Rudolf,

Labeling of data points in a 3D scatter plot is currently not supported. We will work on adding this support in a future version.

See

Thanks,

Easwar

Is there a possibility to write a macro to label the datapoints?

As Easwar wrote, currently, there is no way to draw a lebel in a 3D position.

In a similar way to the previous post,
  ii=1; dotool 3;
  def pointproc{%a=data1_d[ii]$;label -s %a;ii++;};
may help you a little bit to place your labels (say, stored in data1_d).
After run this, select the Data Reader, choose the first data, then repeat the double-clicking and right-arrow. Of course, if you rotate the axes, you break...
