Mathematica Mathematica there is a possibility to twist and turn 3D graphs

AI Thread Summary
In Mathematica, users seek a method to manipulate 3D graphs interactively, similar to functionality in Maple. While the '3D viewpoint selector' allows for rotation, transferring these adjustments to the plot requires re-evaluating expressions, which many find inconvenient. The primary solution identified is using the "ViewPoint -> {x,y,z}" option within the Plot or Show statements to set the desired viewpoint. However, there is no real-time adjustment feature in the GUI that allows for dynamic manipulation without re-evaluation.

Can anybody tell me if in Mathematica there is a possibility to twist and turn 3D graphs like you can in Maple? I've only found a way to type in coordinates to turn it and that's really unconvenient...

There is the '3D viewpoint selector' under the 'input' menu.
 
I know that, and there I can turn the thing around like I want, but how do I transfer that to my plot?
 
... got you :smile: ... it really is inconvenient. Haven't seen anything in the gui which would do it realtime without re-evaluating the expressions :confused:

The only way I know how is to use the "ViewPoint -> {x,y,z}" option in the Plot or Show statement.
