This is an add-on for Orange3 that implements a 3D scatter plot.
The add-on leverages the plotly library to accomplish plotting.

pip install .
To register this add-on with Orange, but keep the code in the development directory (do not copy it to Python's site-packages directory), run
pip install -e .
After the installation, the widget from this add-on is registered with Orange. To run Orange from the terminal, use
orange-canvas
or
python -m Orange.canvas
The new widget appears in the toolbox bar under the section Vis3D
You can select data columns to be X, Y, and Z coordinate values. If there is a column that identifies different datasets, you can specify that with the "Color by" selection. By default all markers are the same size. You can specify a column to set the marker size. The size data will be scaled to the range 5..20 pixels.
The Aspect mode can be set to "Cube" to stretch / squeeze the data into a cube.
Alternatively, setting Aspect Mode to "data" will stretch /squeeze the plot volume to fit the data.
Plots can be saved either as interactive HTML or as static PNG using the buttons in the bottom left.
