CWGraph3D
The CWGraph3D object has properties that affect the overall appearance of the control. It also has collections of axes, plots, and lights. To set properties for a specific part of the control, set the properties on the object corresponding to that part.

| ReadyState | Returns the ready state. |
| TrackMode | Determines the type of events generated and other automatic processing, such as how the mouse interacts with the graph during run time. |
| Use3DHardwareAcceleration | Determines if the 3D Graph control renders directly to the display adapter. |
| ViewAutoDistance | Specifies how the viewing distance is set. |
| ViewDistance | Specifies the distance of the viewing position from the center of the view as defined by ViewXCenter, ViewYCenter, and ViewZCenter. |
| ViewLatitude | Specifies the latitude in degees of the viewing position. |
| ViewLongitude | Specifies the longitude in degrees of the viewing position. |
| ViewMode | Specifies the viewing position of the graph. |
| ViewXCenter, ViewYCenter, ViewZCenter | Specify the X, Y, and Z coordinates of the center of the view. |
| Windowless | Specifies if the control has a window. |
