Absorbance
Click Auto scale if you want to have the software automatically scale the
absorbance axis to the maximum values. To enter a manual range, deselect
the auto scale box, and add your own limits, or click the Get
Limits button to enter the limits displayed on the current 3D graph.
Labels
You can customize the labeling of the 3D plot using the parameters in
this area. You can select font, size, color and style using the selections
provided.

A right mouse click on the 3d plot provides a menu containing various
rotation options. When you select one of these rotation options, a
checkmark will appear next to the option and that rotation option will
become active on the plot.
The cursor will change to indicate the option is in effect.
While the option is active, you can move the plot in the designated way
by holding down the left mouse button and moving the mouse in the
desired direction on the plot. When you have the plot in the desired
position, click the right mouse button and turn off the option by selecting it
again (checkmark removed). If you want to return to the original plot view,
click the right mouse button and select Reset.
The Contour Plot (also referred to as an Isoabsorbance Plot) provides an
aerial view of the absorbance of the sample at each wavelength versus
time. The contour view supplies quick and easy-to-assimilate information
about those wavelengths at which the sample exhibits appreciable
absorbance. With contour view, it is also possible to generate a
Chromatogram View for an individual wavelength and a Spectrum View
for a given point in time.
Right-click inside the window to display the pop-up menu. Select
Properties to display the Contour Properties dialog box.
