A method of plane3d.

planes in space drawn as polygons, each clipped by the bounds of the 3D axes

Syntax

plot(plane)

Into the current box, translucent.

plot(plane, faceColor='red', faceAlpha=0.3)

Coloured.

Description

Every plane is cut by the box of the current axes and drawn as the polygon that remains; the box stays as it was, so draw what defines it first. A plane cannot be drawn into a map.

Input

plane plane3d, one or several

Keywords

keyword default description
faceColor None one colour, or one per plane
faceAlpha 0.5 the opacity of the polygons
edgeColor 'k' the colour of their edges
lineWidth 0.8 the width of their edges
displayName None the label in a legend

Output

h the matplotlib collection of the polygons, None when no plane meets the box
