OpenGL based 3D Graphs
All 3D Graphs in Origin are by default created usingOpenGL (Open Graphics Library). This offers the following key benefits:
- Ultrafast Performance
You can create a surface plot of a 1000x1000 matrix with a 100-color colormap, and be able to plot, edit, rotate, zoom, and pan in "real time".
View this page for performance comparison between Origin 9 and the previous version.
- Enhanced Features
Features such as lighting effects, easier graph rotation control, and the ability to create surface plots directly from XYZ data.

3D Surface Plots
|
| 3D surface plots can be created from matrix data or directly from XYZ data. |
3D color map surface with transparency.
Data points with drop-line to surface.
|
3D color map surface with error bars
|
Intersecting surfaces with transparency settings.
|
Surface plot with contour projection.
|
Wireframe surface plot.
|
|
3D color map surface with lighting effect.
|
Plot displaying pressure variations on a surface.
Color assigned by mapping to pressure values from another matrix.
|
Surface plot with missing values.
|
Multiple stacked surfaces in same layer.
|
Surface plots created from XYZ data. The Surface of electron density is flattened.
|
|
| Options for Surface Graphs: |
- Choose wireframe, color fill, or color map
as plot type
- Plot multiple intersecting surfaces
- Apply transparency to any surface
- Flatten the surface
- Move the surface along Z axis with offset
|
- Add droplines from data points to a surface
- Draw surface mesh lines at desired intervals
- Apply error bars
- Add a color map from another matrix
- Add lighting effects to a surface

3D Symbol, Bar, Trajectory, and Vector Plots
|
3D scatter plot with colormapping and projections
|
3D bar plot with scatters
|
3D Bar Plot with Error
|
3D trajectory graph
|
3D vector graph
|
|
| Options for 3D Symbol, Bar, Trajectory, and Vector Plots: |
- Adjust thickness and color of individual
data points, lines or bars
- Apply transparency to data points, lines or bars
|
- Apply error bars
- Draw projections onto any axis plane
- Add labels to 3D scatter and vector graphs
|
|
XYY Plots: Bars, Ribbons and Walls
|
3D XYY Bar graph
|
3D XYY Wall Graph
|
|
| Options for XYY Graphs: |
- Adjust thickness and color of bars,
walls or ribbons independently or as a group
- Apply transparency to bars
|
- Increment color over many graph elements
- Draw projections onto any axis plane
|
3D Plot Transform
| Origin supports free transform including rotation, resizing and stretching of the 3D plots, the transform can be done dynamically. By clicking on the layer spacer within the 3D frame, the 3D transformation toolbar will be activated, in which you can choose the corresponding buttons to move, rotate, resize or stretch the plot.
The graph layer can be moved arbitrarily in the page. It can also be rotated along the X, Y or Z axis simply by selecting and dragging. It is possible to resize both the graph layer area and each of the three axes. If only one axis is resized, the graph will then be rescaled accordingly.
The images below show examples of rotation and stretching. |
