Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin): Origin 2025 (64-bit) SR1
Operating System: Win11

I am following this example:
https://www.originlab.com/doc/Origin-Help/PD-Dialog-Plane-Tab#Percent.2FValue

in order to have a plane located in a layer at a position defined by a cell value.

It works, but when the cell value changes, the plane does not update its position - it stays locked at the position defined by the cell value when the plane was created originally. Is there a way to have the plane position update when the 'named range' cell value changes? Thank you.

an update - the plane is now updating on its own, but there is quite a delay (many seconds). What triggers the plane position to be updated?
Thank you.

After the cell value is changed, activate the graph, click the Refresh toolbar button or simply press F5. See if it works.

The refresh button works (so does rotating the graph), but F5 doesn't, strangely.
Anyway - thank you for the help!

It's possible that the F5 key is being used by another application. By the way, the 3D plane update issue has been reported (JIRA ID: ORG-31557), and we will work on fixing it. Thank you.
