Hi John, > I'm just starting out with VisAD and have been successful creating a > variety of 3D surface plots.

TIA The general pattern for a scatter plot is data in a FlatField with MathType (index -> (a, b, c, ..., z)) and ScalarMaps: a -> XAxis b -> YAxis c -> ZAxis where any range RealTypes (i.e., any letters a - z) can be substituted for a, b and c in these ScalarMaps. You can add other ScalarMaps to color components (e.g., Red, Green, Blue, RGB) and to SelectRange. The domain of your field doesn't have to be a 1-D 'index', but may be a 2-D image domain such as (line, element). The key idea in a scatter diagram is that domain RealTypes are not mapped to spatial display axes, but that range RealTypes are. Cheers, Bill
