I already plotted a 3d scatter plot using 'plot3d' and then I go for 'qhull' for the delaunay triangulation. However, I am not able to plot the (bound) polygon mesh in my 3d plot. Or, is this triangulation not the way I should look for?

Hi Jeremy,
Thanks for the suggestion, but it doesnot create the polygon.
I tried using 'idlgrpolygon', and it draws the polygon, but still I have problems. Anyway, thanks.
