[Gnuplot-info] Several solid surfaces with correct depthorder and data lines

[Frank S. <der...@gm...>]

Hello, gnuploters!

I could need help with a special problem, look at this plot:

set style data lines
set pm3d
#set pm3d depthorder

splot '-' , '-'
0.5 0.7 3.0
0.5 1.3 4.0

0.7 0.7 3.2
0.7 1.3 4.2

0.9 0.7 3.5
0.9 1.3 3.9

e

0.5 0.7 3.5
0.5 1.3 4.5

0.7 0.7 3.7
0.7 1.3 4.7

0.9 0.7 4.0
0.9 1.3 4.4

Great. Now I just want these two surfaces to been drawn in the correct
order, so that the one in front always covers the other one. If you
uncomment the above line "set pm3d depthorder", the lines between the
single segments are unfortunately not drawn as before.

Has anyone of you an idea how to combine the advantages of both
representations? I have been studying the manual long enough, but
without success (pay attention to the subsection “Pm3d”).

Additionally: I’d like to change the thickness of the lines. (not so
important)

I use gnuplot 4.6.0 (Windows XP, 32 bit) and am glad for any help!
