Mesh surface is used to display elevational
data connecting adjacent data-points spaced
randomly on the chart's width- and depth-dimensions.
Palette coloring may be used for filling, framing
and drawing the contours of the elevation zones.
Palette may be zoned or smooth. Mesh surface series
allow complex 3D objects to be rendered into the
chart's scene.

This composition is created using 5 mesh surface
series, arranged over a Floor chart wall. The
dot-frame hemisphere is a mesh surface series
rendered with "Dots Frame Style".

This example demonstrates a mesh representing a
mathematically generated spiral surface.

"Empty data points" is a feature allowing data
points to be specified with no value supplied.
These data points are not rendered by the chart
thus allowing empty shifts in a dimension scale.

Mesh surface series may intersect. Using opacity
settings for surface filling allows higher
readability of the represented data.

The Mesh surface series supports a FillEffect for
the whole surface. The user can apply images,
gradients, advanced gradients and patterns to the
surface, as well as modify material properties
like Specular Color, Emissive Color and Shininess.
