Does Mathscript support Matlab's Slice function?

[grubin698]

Hello,

I am trying to decide whether to take on a project using Matlab or Labview.  The project will require plotting of volumetric data, both as slices and as 3D volumes.  I currently do not have LabVIEW 8.20 installed on any of our machines, so I am not able to test these things.

I have not seen Matlab's Slice function in the list of Mathscript functions.  Is it not supported my Mathscript?
Also, I see that Surf is a supported function; does Mathscript also support the alpha channel control that is present in Matlab for Surf plots?
Thanks,
Gary

Hello Gary,

Unfortunately, the slice function and the alpha channel are not currently supported by LabVIEW MathScript.  However, the LabVIEW 3D graph control (which is used by the surf command) has some transparency options.  They can't be set from LabVIEW MathScript, but I can provide some more details about how to use them if you want.
