3D Ternary Plot Button

Click the 3D Ternary Plot button to display the Ternary Graphs dialog. A ternary plot can be used to examine relations between four or more dimensions where three of those dimensions represent components of a mixture (i.e., the relations between them is constrained such that the values of the three variables add up to the same constant). One typical application of this graph is when the measured response(s) from an experiment depends on the relative proportions of three components (e.g., three different chemicals) which are varied in order to determine an optimal combination of those components (e.g., in mixture designs).
