3D graphics is not a strong point of Stata. One
thing you could do is turn age into a
categorical variable and use Nick Cox's
-stripplot- to display the distribution of BMI
for each age category in one graph. This may
actually be more easy to interpret than a 3D
density plot. You can install -stripplot- by
typing in Stata -ssc install stripplot-.
Hope this helps,
