In the past I used pst-3dplot package to generate nice geometric figures in pdf format. Two days ago I tried to run a TeX recompile and the compile failed as the log file complains that the "\pstThreeDLine(0,0,0)(10,10,10)" (and subsequent other line commands) is broken and the error is

! Undefined control sequence. \c@lor@to@ps ->\PSTricks _Not_Configured_For_This_Format l.49 \pstThreeDLine( 0,0,0)(10,10,10) The control sequence at the end of the top line of your error message was never \def'ed.

I have an updated openSuse Linux Leap 15.5 system, currently updated software, and the TeXlive modules seem current. I reloaded the "pst-3dplot" software as well as the "xkeyvalue" module too, but things are just flat broken.

How can I proceed on determining the real problem here? Thank you.

    you can not use pdflatex with pstricks, use latex or lualatex – David Carlisle Nov 11 '23 at 20:56
  • David, you are absolutely 100% correct. I had to specifically force TeXStudio to compile using normal latex, then things worked correctly, except that I had to then force a dvi file --> ps conversion, then a ps --> pdf conversion which were 2 extra steps. But I appreciate you alerting me to this requirement. My issue is closed – Randall Nov 14 '23 at 01:55
