I have found that function graphics are particularly picky about whether you pass them a column vector or row vector. Problems arise when you pass data in as a row vector (a 1xN array, as you are doing above). The solution is to reform your data into a column vector (Nx1 array), like so

x = reform(t[1,*])
y = reform(t[2,*])
z = reform(t[3,*])

p = plot3d(x, y, z, 'o')
