Hi all, I made a 3D-plot in Gretl - based on data from the data-file. Is there any easy way to edit the 3D-graph/figure, for example adjusting the min-max value of the axes etc. etc.?

I couldn't find or see them. cheers sven _______________________________________________ Gretl-users mailing list -- gretl-users(a)gretlml.univpm.it To unsubscribe send an email to gretl-users-leave(a)gretlml.univpm.it Website: https://gretlml.univpm.it/postorius/lists/gretl-users.gretlml.univpm.it/

I couldn't find or see them. In most cases when you call for a 3-D plot via the GUI you'll see a checkbox -- checked by default -- to select interactive mode. This allows you to manipulate the plot. (This option will be missing only if the installed gnuplot version doesn't support it.) However, if you want to see the gnuplot commands here's what to do: * Uncheck the "interactive" box. Then the plot will appear in a native gretl window. By right-click or via the "hamburger" menu you can save the plot "as an icon". * Open the Icon View window, and right-click on the plot's icon. As usual, you'll see the option to see (and edit) the gnuplot commands. I've now added a note to this effect in the help text for the 3-D plot selection dialog.

Hi Allin, Thank you for following up on the question about editing a 3D plot
