the colour of every face of every crystal shape, as plot(cS) paints them

Syntax

C = faceColors(cS)

The colour of the mineral, or LightSkyBlue.

C = faceColors(cS, 'red')

One colour.

C = faceColors(cS, cS.faceArea, colormap='parula')

A value per face through a colour map.

C = faceColors(cS, colored=True)

A colour per form.

C = faceColors(cS, colored=ipfHSVKey(cS.CS))

The key’s colour of every normal.

Description

faceColor is one colour, one RGB or RGBA row per face or per shape, or a value per face, mapped through the colour map from its smallest to its largest value. colored overrides it.

Input

cS crystalShape, one or a list of n shapes

Keywords

keyword default description
faceColor None one colour, one per face, one per shape, or a value per face
colored None True for a colour per form, or a direction or ipf key colouring the normals
colormap 'viridis' the colour map of the values per face

Output

C (n, number of faces, 4) array of RGBA colours
