multiple plots on a 3d graph

[John Pierson]

basically what i would liketo do is feed both a 3d sherical coordinate shape into a labview 3d graph, but also place a sinlge line into the graph.
I have managed to get the surface and line [well a dot] to plot independantly what i would like to do is plot a line at the same time.
attatched an image of what i mean

on that image i would like to place a line at a known angle of say 30deg30deg and r=1 [in sherical coordiantes]

i have attempted to bundle both the parts and all three axies but this breaks the connection to the graph and it won't attapt.

please help!

sorry forgot attatchment

Hi John,

Its sounds like you just need to add a new plot for your line. Each plot can have its own plot style.

The Tags I have collected here contain links to some of my previous posting re: 3-d graphs. Take at look at those threads and let us know if you still have trouble.

Trying to help,

hi, i've had a look through and didn't find sanything that sparked a thought, basically what i would like to do is plot with the graph already on [the attatchment higher up] a line from r=0 to say r=1 in spherical coordiantes, how do i go about pulling another line in but just one value?? there is a difference in data size with the two.

Just add another plot with two data points that specify the origin and the end of the line.

As I stated previously, the two plots (one for shere one for line) can use different plot styles.

Hi, i've put my VI attatched to this post, i've tried and tried to get the data lines to connect properly but i keep breaking the connections - errors that confuse me, could you have a go, say a line of r=1, at thetaI=45deg and phiI=0deg
I would really apreciate it.
