The XYZ Chart Widget creates 3D scatter plots that visualize relationships between three variables simultaneously. Each data point is positioned by its X, Y, and Z coordinates, with interactive rotation and zoom controls.
The chart toolbar (top-left) provides 3D rotation, zoom in, zoom out, and reset view controls. The period selector in the top-right shows the time range of the plotted data.
Key Features
Three-Axis Plotting
Each axis is independently configured with its own data source, unit, and decimal precision:
- X Axis — Horizontal axis (e.g., irradiance, wind speed).
- Y Axis — Vertical axis (e.g., Active Power, energy output).
- Z Axis — Depth axis, adding the third dimension to the scatter.
Interactive 3D Navigation
Users can freely rotate the chart in 3D space to examine data relationships from different angles. The zoom controls allow focusing on specific data clusters.
Axis Range Control
Each axis supports custom min/max ranges, or can be set to Auto for dynamic scaling based on the data.
Color Filtering
An optional point color filtering feature allows color-coding data points based on a fourth variable, adding another dimension to the analysis.
Release Status
This widget is currently in Beta. It is fully functional but may receive further enhancements based on user feedback.
