Dear Deepayan, many thanks for answering.
Another thing I am wondering is the following: I know you can have (3d-like) "crosses" in the wireframe plot. But are there any other 3d-like plot symbols? Of course one can use different colors to distinguish between several points. The problem is that most of the scientific journals do not allow colors [or it's expensive]. I am thus wondering if the plot symbols have equivalent 3d-versions. It looks a bit odd to draw a 2d cross in a 3d wireframe. Or a circle. Concerning the circle, it could be a small ball in 3d for example. Is there anything like this?
