a polyline in the coordinates of the current map, drawn under its layout, MATLAB’s line

Syntax

plot(ebsd)

line([0, 10000], [0, 5000], lineStyle=':', lineWidth=4, color='w')

A dotted white line across the map.

line(x, y, z)

A polyline in a 3D scene.

Description

The points are given in the map’s coordinates and placed on the screen as the map is, whatever its plotting convention; without a map the line goes into the current axes as given. The line is black, solid and 0.5 wide unless the keywords say otherwise; the other keywords are matplotlib’s. With z the polyline goes into the current 3D scene, NaN separating its pieces.

Input

x, y the coordinates of the points

Keywords

keyword	default	description
`z`	`None`	the third coordinates, a polyline in space

Output

`h`	the matplotlib line, or the scene object of a line in space

Used on
