Is displaying a solid 3D object, like a sphere, possible?

Does TeeChart support the display of solid 3D objects like a sphere? I've tried Surface and TriSurface series without success.

Thank you very much,
DTech

Have you seen the new Bubble 3D series in AXv7? There's an example of it in the Features Demo under:
Welcome -> New Series -> Bubble 3D
Thank you!

Solid 3D Object

Post by DTech » Wed Oct 20, 2004 9:45 pm

Thanks for the suggestion, but the 3D Bubble series is not what I was talking about. What I will have is a complex set of points in 3D space that define some solid 3D object. I was hoping to be able to display this object on the TeeChart...basically the step beyond the surface series to a solid 3D object. Any such capability in TeeChart? Thanks for you help!
Thanks, DTech

Have you tried using a TriSurface series to plot the points on an OpenGL canvas? That might simulate a solid 3D object.
Thank you!

I read that you may have tried that already, in which case I'm afraid I haven't go a better suggestion.
Thank you!
