Re: [Gnuplot-info] taking slices with splot

[Gavin B. <gav...@ya...>]

My understanding of the problem was that you wanted lines drawn in, say, th=
e x-z plane at a constant value oy y, rather than in the x-y plane at a con=
stant value of z.=0A=0AI've only ever done this with data points where the =
y-values are at the value I want to select (didn't look too pretty either f=
rom what I remember).=0A=0AIf it is a function is there some way of writing=
 the function for a constant value of y and plotting a line? =0A=0AMike Lib=
