How Do I Create Stacked 3D Plots

GiovJensen — Sun, 11 Jun 2023 11:11:09 GMT

How can I stack 3D plots as in the graph below? There are 4 3D plots on the same graph (one z axis, same x and y axes). Each plot is a surface of the z-data plotted against x and y. Z may be a formula instead of raw data.

Haven't been able to find any posts specific to this. A script is okay. Hoping for an easy answer to share with a new JMP user.

You can get some of it by using formulas like this:

Up to four formulas can be displayed at once

You may have to add a bit (like 1+ in the 2nd formula) to artificially separate the surfaces. If you right-click the color patches, you can get a menu to control some sheet properties.

Try opening surface plot with NO data tables open. The built-in formulas in slots 2,3,4 are for isosurface.

Craige, thanks for the quick response. It turns out that we need to use the raw data and not formulas. Good to know this method for formulas as it's bound to come up at some time.

For the raw data, I used the 3D Scatterplot and the column labeling each "surface" as Coloring.
