Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ dots and tikz-3dplot

[Roel]

Hello

I'm using tikz-3dplot to draw a 3d coordinate system and would like to draw dots (small spheres).
With the 2d method I normally use (\draw (0,0) circle (2pt) ), the output is a circle in the xy-plane (an ellipse). Not what I want.

Anyone any idea how to solve that?

tikz loads pgf.

Change your command in the loop to

\fill [tdplot_screen_coords, ball color=red] (\n) circle (0.15);
or draw nodes instead.

Thanks a lot, Bartman.
You really helped me!
