This is an adaptation of Andy Pope’s 3D scatter chart. I have used it to plot a 3D Helix. I think this chart may be of particular use to ExcelCalcs users but see the list of links to his website and other custom charts below.
For anyone interested in how Andy uses matricies to produce the 3D chart you might also wish to look at
transformation matrix.xls
