Border

The option set pm3d border {line-properties} draws bounding lines around each quadrangle as it is rendered. Normally this is used in conjunction with the depthorder option to approximate hidden line removal. Note that the global option set hidden3d has no effect on pm3d plots. Default line properties (color, width) optionally follow the keyword border. These defaults can be overridden later in an splot command.

Example of recommended usage:

     set pm3d at s depthorder border lw 0.2 lt black
     unset hidden3d
     unset surf
     splot x*x+y*y linecolor rgb "blue"   # otherwise it would be black

NB: The deprecated option set pm3d hidden3d N is still accepted. It is equivalent to set pm3d border ls N.
