A method of crystalShape.
the section of a crystal shape by a lattice plane through its centre
Syntax
plotInnerFace(cS, N)
The plane N inside the shape.
plotInnerFace(cS, N, faceColor='red', faceAlpha=0.5, displayName='(101)')
Coloured, for a legend.
Description
The plane is drawn as the polygon where it cuts the shape, in the axes of the shape, so that it shows inside a translucent shape drawn before: plot(cS, faceAlpha=0.2), then plotInnerFace with the figure held. Several planes give several polygons.
Input

crystalShape |
N |

displayName |
None |
its label in a legend |
Output
