the faces of a 3D grain boundary as a polygon mesh of a scene3d; what plot(gB) draws for a grain3Boundary, MATLAB’s grain3Boundary/plot

Syntax

mesh = boundaryMesh(gB)

Light blue faces.

mesh = boundaryMesh(gB, gB.misorientation.angle() / degree)

Coloured by a value per face.

mesh = boundaryMesh(gB, faceColor='red', faceAlpha=0.3, lineWidth=1)

One colour, translucent.

Description

A face whose value or colour is NaN is not drawn.

Input

gB grain3Boundary, the boundary faces

Keywords

keyword default description
color None a value per face mapped by the colour map, an RGB row per face or one RGB triple
faceColor None one colour for all faces, when color is not given
faceAlpha 1.0 the opacity of the faces
edgeColor 'k' the colour of the edges of the faces, ‘none’ for no edges
edgeAlpha 1.0 the opacity of the edges
lineWidth 0.5 the width of the edges in points
colormap None the colour map for values
colorRange None (min, max), the values the colour map spans; by default their range

Output

mesh mesh3d, the faces with a colour each; with a value per face it keeps the values, the colour map and the range for the colour bar
