Window title:
DsTool: Geomview threeD interface
Function:
The 3-D View window allows the user to graphically display computed data in Geomview.
Description:
The 3-D View window is opened by selecting the Three-D (Geomview) option from the Panels menu button located in the Command window. The 3-D View window can always be opened, regardless of the number of phase space variables of the system, however only one 3-D View window may be opened. The user can select the plotting coordinates from all available variables, parameters, and auxiliary functions of the current dynamical system, or plotting coordinates can be set to ``0''.

Unlike the 2-D and 1-D View windows, data is not displayed as it is computed. The data must be computed first, and then sent to Geomview. In addition to the data points which are sent, Geomview will display a bounding box which corresponds to the product of the default ranges of the plotting coordinates.
