Plotting 3D lines with color

Say I have spherical coordinates for a high number of lines, namely [x_from x_to], [y_from y_to] and [z_from z_to].

I can plot them on the globe I have prepared earlier within a for loop for the length of lines as in:

plot3([x_from x_to], [y_from y_to], [z_from z_to])

However I was not able to plot them with their assigned color of line color equal to some rgb value ([0.5 1 0]) . I have tried the color scheme in 2D plot and it works. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks for your replies in advance!

plot3([x_from x_to], [y_from y_to], [z_from z_to], 'Color', line_color)

Please explain, what "was not able to plot them with their assigned color" means. What happens, if you try this? Is there an error message or does the result differ from your expectations?

Program does not execute the line due some scalar error. Leaving out the " 'Color', line_color " part it plots the lines.

We are problably missing some details, but I can create a dummy example using the syntax you show, and it works.

plot3(1:3,3:5,2:4,'Color',[0.5 1 0])

Yes, the problematic part was not due to coloring after checking it again. Thanks for your reply though, since it helped it.
