Object Graphics. Specifically, by plotting your vertical sheet as
a polygon with a texture map that includes an alpha channel. I think
David F has an article on this on his web page.

Failing that, you could always plot a strip-like surface with a
solid skirt. If you make the strip thin enough it will look like a
line, and you can then use the techniques described in my direct
graphics surface plotting pages to make it transparent:
