A surface chart displays continuous data as a 3D mesh where two independent variables determine both the height and the color of the surface. This chart type excels at revealing gradients and wave-like patterns in computed or measured data.
This sample generates data from the expression x + y + sin((x² + y²) × 10) and applies a custom three-color linear scale of green, blue, and red to the mesh. Each axis is styled with a distinct stroke color for easy spatial orientation, and all labels are formatted to two decimal places. Z-axis rotation and mesh stroke settings further refine the presentation.
