scatterplot3d was never intended to draw a plot for categorical data, but you can tweak it as follows: - Note that the help page says (stolen from ?par) "The values of x and y give the (approximate) number of tickmarks on the x and y axes." where "approximate" is stressed in this context. It works for me to use lab = c(2,2) - add argument mar = c(3,3,3,3) - add argument y.margin.add = 0.15, Best, Uwe Geoff Russell wrote: > Dear users, > > I'm trying to produce a 3d bar plot but the x and y dimensions have > categorical > data -- so I only want 3 points on each axis.
