2.5D Function Graph
Main Steps Of Creating 2.5D Function Graphs
To create a 2.5D function graph, following these steps:
- If graphs created before are 2D or 3D, select File->New->2.5D Graph from the menus, or click
button in Standard toolbar.
- If current coordinate system is 2.5D Cartesian, select Draw->2.5D Function Graph->Cartesian from the menus, or click
button in Plot toolbar; If current coordinate system is polar, select Draw->2.5D Function Graph->Polar from the menus, or click button in Plot toolbar.
- Set some necessary options in 2.5D Function Graph Properties dialogbox, and click OK button.
Examples:
Some 2.5D examples are provided. You can find them in a directory in your setup path, setuppath\samples\2.5D.
Cartesian Graphs
To create a function graph in 2.5D Cartesian coordinate system, following these steps:
- If graphs created before are 2D or 3D, select File->New->2.5D Graph from the menus, or click
button in Standard toolbar.
- Select Draw->2.5D Function Graph->Cartesian from the menus, or click
button in Plot toolbar to open 2.5D Function Graph Properties dialogbox.
- Enter function name in Name field; select an item in Form drop-down listbox according to the form of your function; the default option of Coordinate drop-down listbox is Cartesian, don't change it.
- Enter the expression of your function and the values of variables in other fields.
Note: Steps VarName(VarName indicates a variable name such as x, u) in 2.5D Function Graph Properties dialogbox shows the number of intervals between the minimum value and the maximum value of a variable. A larger value will result in a smoother curve.
- Click OK button.
Examples:
Some 2.5D examples are provided. You can find them in a directory in your setup path, setuppath\samples\2.5D.
Polar Graphs
To create a function graph in 2.5D polar coordinate system, following these steps:
- If graphs created before are 2D or 3D, select File->New->2.5D Graph from the menus, or click
button in Standard toolbar.
- Select Draw->2.5D Function Graph->Polar from the menus, or click
button in Plot toolbar to open 2.5D Function Graph Properties dialogbox.
- Enter function name in Name field; select an item in Form drop-down listbox according to the form of your function; the default option of Coordinate drop-down listbox is Polar, don't change it.
- Enter the expression of your function and the values of variables in other fields.
Note: Steps VarName(VarName indicates a variable name such as x, u) in 2.5D Function Graph Properties dialogbox shows the number of intervals between the minimum value and the maximum value of a variable. A larger value will result in a smoother curve.
- Click OK button.

Graphing Explicit Function
To create a graph of explicit function, you should select item one in Form drop-down listbox in 2.5D Function Graph Properties dialogbox.
Examples:
Some 2.5D examples are provided. You can find them in a directory in your setup path, setuppath\samples\2.5D.
Graphing Parametric Function
To create a graph of parametric function, you should select item two in Form drop-down listbox in 2.5D Function Graph Properties dialogbox.
Examples:
Some 2.5D examples are provided. You can find them in a directory in your setup path, setuppath\samples\2.5D.
