public interface PaperType3D extends PaperType

PaperType sub-interface for making 3-dimensional plots.

Any decals placed by PaperType.placeDecal(Paper, Decal) will be painted in the background first, then any glyphs added by placeGlyph(Paper, double, double, double, Glyph, Color) will be added to the 3D scene, then 3D rendering will be done obscuring any background decals. Note this is not really 3D for the decals; bear that in mind when writing 3D plotters.
