Hi Sofiane
the command
ParametricPlot3D[{Sin[phi],Cos[phi],phi,Hue[0.5*(phi/Pi+1)]},{phi,-Pi,Pi}]
will make a rainbow colored 3d spiral.
You can still extract the Line[] data from the result and color the line
with
plt=ParametricPlot3D[{Sin[phi],Cos[phi],phi},{phi,-Pi,Pi},DisplayFunction->I
dentity];
Show[Graphics3D[{RGBColor[0,0,1],First[plt]},Axes->True]]
Hope that helps
Jens
