## B.11 `plot2cube`: Draws a cube plot

`plot2cube` draws plots in a Cartesian 3-dimensional space. The plotting volume is a cube, which is viewed from the outside and usually bounded by an annotated wire frame.

Positional coordinates are specified as `x`, `y`, `z` triples, e.g.:

       plot2cube layer1=mark in1=sim.fits x1=XPOS y1=YPOS z1=ZPOS

Content is added to the plot by specifying one or more plot layers using the `layerN` parameter. The `N` part is a suffix applied to all the parameters affecting a given layer; any suffix (including the empty string) may be used. Available layers for this plot type are: `mark`, `size`, `sizexy`, `xyzvector`, `xyzerror`, `link2`, `mark2`, `poly4`, `mark4`, `polygon`, `label`, `line3d`, `contour`, `spheregrid`.
