Contour map axes

Is it possible to draw a contour map with axes set at an angle and of different lengths? :D

Hello turweston,

I'm not sure to understand what are you exactly trying to do. Could you please show us a picture about it?

Hello
Most contour maps are with respect to orthogonal axes, but sometimes one needs to plot them with non-orthogonal axes i.e. axes that are not perpendicular to each other.

Hi turweston,

You can set the chart to be non-orthogonal, set rotation and elevation as desired and also change walls, axes and grid visibility, for example:

Code: Select all

uses TeeSurfa;

procedure TForm1.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
begin
  Chart1.AddSeries(TContourSeries.Create(Self)).FillSampleValues;

  Chart1.Aspect.Orthogonal:=False;
  Chart1.Aspect.Elevation:=290;
  Chart1.Aspect.Rotation:=350;
  Chart1.Chart3DPercent:=50;
end;
