Upgrading Labview has broken my old code LV2019. I'm now using LV 2023 and trying to get this code (post below) to work again. I see LV2023 has a new scatter plot VI but I can't figure out how to control the color of the point. They assigned a color based on Z axis value.

I'd also like to learn how to do this in LabVIEW 2023. I'd hate to lose this functionality while upgrading to a new version of LabVIEW.
The NI example link in the original post was written using the old ActiveX 3D controls. Since this is old technology and also wasn't a native LabVIEW control, it is understandable that it was phased out. However, being able to assign the colormap its own data, in addition to x,y,z is very useful.
An example would be plotting temperatures in a 3D space. The colormap should not be related to any of the x,y,z positions, but rather a fourth array containing the temperature at each position in 3D space.
