the layout a convention asks for: the 2 x 2 matrix taking the in-plane coordinates of a map to the screen, east to the right and north up

Syntax

M = mapLayout()

The default plotting convention.

M = mapLayout('x↑→y')

X up, y to the right.

M = mapLayout(pC, ebsd.lattice.plane)

A map in another plane.

Description

The rows are the components of east and north along the coordinates of the map’s plane (x and y without a plane), snapped to the signed permutation an axis aligned convention is, so that the picture is turned rather than resampled. A convention whose screen is not the plane, as the xy convention of a map in the yz plane, draws the plane’s own coordinates east and north.

Keywords

keyword default description
pC None plottingConvention, or the string of one; by default plottingConvention.default
plane None the plane of the map, whose e1 and e2 are its coordinates

Output

M a 2 x 2 array
