Usually the surface is displayed at some convenient viewing angle, such that it clearly represents a 3D surface.


#Gnuplot surface plot code#
Solid surfaces can be generated using the style splot with pm3d. I use the following gnuplot code to plot: set terminal wxt size 800,800 set mapping cartesian set view equal xyz set xlabel 'x' set ylabel 'y' set zlabel 'z' splot '' u 1:2:3:4 with pm3d pause -1 Unfortunately Gnuplot doesn't seem to be able to properly represent the colours on the sphere.
