A method of grain3Boundary.

the faces of a 3D grain boundary, light blue, in one colour, or coloured by a value or a colour per face; MATLAB’s grain3Boundary.plot

Syntax

plot(gB)

Light blue faces.

plot(gB, gB.area)

Coloured by a value per face.

plot(gB, faceColor='r', edgeAlpha=0.2)

One colour, faint edges.

Description

Values are mapped by the colour map, parula as MATLAB’s patches. The options of the drawing are keywords too: faceColor, faceAlpha, edgeColor, edgeAlpha, lineWidth, colormap and colorRange; lineStyle=’none’ draws no edges. The plot is a scene3d held by the mtexFigure, shown as the picture PyVista renders offscreen (matplotlib’s 3D axes without PyVista), so hold, setCamera and mtexColorbar act on it as on any MTEX figure; show3d opens it in a window and exportHTML writes it as an interactive page.

Input

gB grain3Boundary
color a value or an RGB colour per face

Keywords

keyword default description
how2plot None the plottingConvention of the view, by default plottingConvention.default3D
figSize None the size of a new figure, ‘small’, ‘normal’, ‘large’, …, or (width, height) in inches

Output

fig mtexFigure
