Followup: by using the ImportSpreadsheet, then three Marks (for column0, 1, and 2), and then sending that to a Make3DField, and then to an AutoGlyph, I was able to view the points as a series of points. (Yes, I stole that from the VisualizeData template). I'd like to make a surface out of that... sending it to an isosurface doesn't work, and if I leave off the glyphs, it butchers my data by connecting everything, and gets that wrong (i.e., it joins the ends together, basically putting lines in the wrong places). Any ideas? (sorry if this is a really simple question...) > -- > Mike Miller > [EMAIL PROTECTED] -> > [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Mike Miller [EMAIL PROTECTED] -> [EMAIL PROTECTED]
