adding min/max to 3d plot

[Patrick Ohly-2]

Hello,

now that my 3d plots are working I'd like to make it easier to read the
z-values. Adding "<option>ztics mirror</option>" already makes it easier
(IMHO, of course) because now there are two vertical axises with tics.

Ideally the plot would also give the exact values for min and max as a
single tick in the 3d space with a label quoting the z-value. I'd also
settle for an additional label (text-only, no tick). Any suggestions how
I could achieve either of this?

The naive solution would have been:
  <operator id="op.slowdown.max" type="max">
    <input>op.slowdown</input>
  </operator>
  ...  
    <input label="title">op.slowdown.sorted</input>
    <input>op.slowdown.min</input>
    <input>op.slowdown.max</input>

But this only plots the op.slowdown.sorted. When I switch to "raw_text"
the min/max values are not printed either. They are printed if I put
op.slowdown.sorted at the end, but then op.slowdown.sorted itself is
skipped.

I can not analyze right now why this fails, but you can specifiy as many
output objects per query as you like. Just add another one for the raw
text output of min and max, and you should at least have the data.

Putting them into the gnuplot as a label is a different task - not (yet)
supported by perfbase. But you always have the .gp file for your plot,
which you can post-process with some external script (together with the
min/max vals) to get the plot you want.
