Mathcad Help, under Component Structure, states that “The plot area…displays the plot of the X and Y expressions defined in the Inputs area. You can use the component block handles to resize the chart area in the x, y, or both directions.” I want to "stretch" a surface plot in the y direction only- -leaving the x and z dimensions of the plot as they are now- -but cannot access the abovementioned “handles” to do this.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Primes plotting capabilites are VERY limited and especially the 3D-plot is extremely inferior.
PTC was not able to develop a decent plot feature and so they decided in Prime 5 to add a third party chart component which they integrated into the program quite poorly.
I guess the description you cited is für this third party chart component (which is for 2D-plots only) and does not apply to the 3D-plots. So I guess the formatting which you have in mind simply can't be done with the Prime 3D-plot.
I interpreted your question so that you look for something like this (done in Mathcad 15):
Click on the upper-right corner of the 3D plot area.
Then choose your axis, then change the scale.
Success!

Thanks for your input. I am extremely disappointed that the software cannot provide a decent-looking surface plot.
You are not the only one who is disappointed with Prime.
