axisAnglePlot edit page

3d plot of orientation space in axis angle coordinates

An orientation is drawn at its rotational axis scaled by its rotational angle in degree. This is the default of plot and the base of the other ball shaped parametrisations.

Syntax

plot(ori,'axisAngle')
plot(ori,'axisAngle','ignoreFundamentalRegion')

Options

ignoreFundamentalRegion plot orientations as they are
project2FundamentalRegion project into the fundamental region, default
restrict2FundamentalRegion drop orientations outside it
noBoundary do not plot the boundary

Class Properties

oR orientationRegion drawn as the boundary
CS1, CS2 the two symmetry
ax the axes handle

Example

cs = crystalSymmetry('432');
plot(orientation.rand(200,cs),'axisAngle')
