I have two questions: First: I have created several files of 3D scatterplots from lists imported from text files. It looks like this: << Graphics`Graphics3D` SetDirectory["c:\Documents and Settings\chris\My Documents\mathxyeke"] Directory[] data = ReadList["33.txt", Number, RecordLists -> True]; ScatterPlot3D[data, PlotRange -> {0, 2}, BoxRatios -> {1, 1, 1.5}, ViewPoint -> {1, .1, -.1}, Boxed -> False, AxesEdge -> {{1, -1}, {1, -1}, {-1, 1}}] I would like to create a surface plot with this data as well, I found some discussion in the archives, but could not find any answers on how to do this. ListSurfacePlot does not seem to work, I believe that is because the points are not uniformly spaced in the x-y plane. Anyhelp on how to do this would be great. Second: I have taken these plots and put them in a single program by copy/paste so that Mathematica can animate them. I am having a hard time exporting these graphics as a animation into a .gif file. The problem is that i cannot define the cells as a "graphic" expression that Mathematica will convert. I gat create .gifs of individual images from the original files, but cannot create the .gif for the animation. Can someone give me a few pointer? ctgarric at edisto.cofc.edu
