I very much appreciate the links, especially the one to http://addictedtor.free.fr/graphiques/RGraphGallery.php?graph=116

I agree with the second link that it is difficult depending on the data to do justice with a 3-D plot using a bar pot.  The point of the plot is not to present the full quantitative picture, but just one piece of it.  

If there is something that produces a little bit better graphics than those from the scatterplot approach that would be great.  It would be great if I could do a "surf" plot from the data, but unfortunately a lot of it is discrete, e.g. location.  

I guess this may just not be possible, but just thought I would check.  Thanks again.

Dear Jason,
For the 3D barplot take a look at

but also at

Searched my R reference docs*, and the Rseek, but evidently I've overlooked this capabilty. 

 

Is it possible to produce a 3d Barplot using R?

 

For example would like to have a three axis bar plot - \

x-axis = location(discrete),

y-axis = data value,

z-axis = frequency of value occurance (of location and value)

 

Would also if could also do something like what "qplot" allows, i.e. doing stacked histograms.  I would like the "staked" histogram values to show age.

 

Thanks for any feedback and insight that can be provided.
