Demonstrates how to use PointLinesRenderableSeries3D type to create a 3D Simple PointLines Chart with SciChart for your Android applications.

The 3D PointLines Charts are often used in science and engineering fields, allowing for complex data visualization, showing overall values and shapes as well as emphasizing the specifics.

The PointLinesRenderableSeries3D type supports multiple PointMarkers in 3D, including: SpherePointMarker3D, CubePointMarker3D, PyramidPointMarker3D, CylinderPointMarker3D and more Fast 2D Marker types.
