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

This will allow you to manually set the viewpoint by typing in coordinates. However, there is also a '3D viewpoint selector' under the 'input' menu that allows you to easily twist and turn the graph. Unfortunately, it seems like there is no way to transfer that directly to the plot without re-evaluating the expressions, which can be inconvenient.

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...

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.
