关于 Pentaho Kettle 支持3D 的可视化插件的安装（3D Visualization Perspective）

Introduction

The 3D visualization perspective is a plugin Spoon perspective for PDI >= 4.0 that provides a Java 3D-based 3D scatter plot visualization and a histogram matrix overview. Like the Agile BI plugins, it can be accessed from the contextual menu that appears when right-clicking over a Table output (or Table input) step in a transformation.

Requirements

• PDI version 4.0 or higher
• Java 3D - this is included on Mac OS X, but is a separate download for other operating systems. This must be installed before using the 3D visualization perspective for PDI. Java 3D can be obtained from: https://java3d.dev.java.net/binary-builds.html
Download
Binary or source archives can be obtained from the "List of Available Pentaho Data Integration Plug-Ins" wiki page.
