ROTATE Statement

ROTATE variable-list * variable-list * variable-list

< / < LABEL=variable > < < MARKERSIZE | MS >=value >

< XAXIS=axis > < YAXIS=axis > < ZAXIS=axis > >;

The ROTATE statement creates three-dimensional rotating plots.

Use at least one Z variable, followed by an asterisk, followed by at least one Y variable, followed by an asterisk, followed by at least one X variable. Use multiple Z, Y, and X variables to create a rotating plot matrix. For example, you might use

   rotate a b c d * a b c d * a b c d;

to create a matrix displaying all possible three-dimensional plots for the variables a, b, c, and d.

You can use the LABEL= option to assign a Label variable. Use the MARKERSIZE= or MS= option to specify the size of observation markers. Marker size is a number between 1 and 8. Use the XAXIS=, YAXIS=, and ZAXIS= options to specify numeric axes. Syntax of axis options is described under the BAR statement.
