JSL: Change Settings in a 3D Surface Plot with By groups

/* Objective

In a 3D surface Plot one can set the settings for Markers in the graph by right click and e.g. Marker Scale, Marker Quality and so forth. This is easy for one graph. If you have a by Group with many groups you have to do this for each graph manually again, no control key works for replication.

So how to replicate setting the option e.g. for Marker Scale and Marker Quality to all others???

*/

　

/* Ideas

I thought about saving the script and use this script as an expression where I could substitute Frame3D properties so that I have the desired options. Or substitute . "ScaleBox" with "ScaleBox(Set Marker Scale(5), Set Marker Quality(0)), ScaleBox" which is within the output of the Get Script command.

 

Another idea was to use XPath, but I failed to automate things. I used

r_sp[Box(1)][ListBox(2)][PictureBox(1)][ScaleBox(1)][Display3DBox(1)] << Set Marker Scale (5)

which worked for the first but not all others as I couldn't figure out how to get rid of the indices.

*/

Attached a script where I tested some papproaches. I'd appreciate any solution other than copy past the parts into the ByGroup sections and then run the script again. The example has 3 groups but the use case has about 90 groups.

 

Thanks,

Martin

// This does not work as there are "..." included which throws an error obviously. I checked different approaches but gave up and ask now :)

myExpr = r_sp << Get Script;

Re: JSL: Change Settings in a 3D Surface Plot with By groups

Hi Martin,

I think this will do it.

However, I did notice it works on Windows host but seems to have no effect with Mac host.

Perhaps it has something to do with how Open GL is used on each host.

Adding @Paul_Nelson  to see if he can add more insight wrt to host dependency artifact.
