c is often a predefined color name (see plot/color ) or a color function (see plot3d/colorfunc ). This option overrides values specified for font. This option defines the font for plot captions, specified in the same manner as font. Use the characters \n to start a new caption line. You can create multi-line captions for standard plots. The value of c must be a string or a list consisting of the caption followed by the captionfont option. The second form allows the information to be specified for a single axis or two axes, with dir taking the value 1 ( x -axis), 2 ( y -axis), 3 ( z -axis), or a sequence of two of these values. The first form axis=t applies the information given in t to all three axes.
Specifies information about the x -axis, y -axis, and z -axis. This option defines the font for the labels on the tick marks of the axes, specified in the same manner as font. This option specifies how the axes are to be drawn, where f is one of boxed, normal, frame, or none. The values of r, g, and b must be numeric in the range 0 to 1. This option sets the red, green, and blue intensity of the ambient light for user defined lighting. If any grid points are adjusted then a MESH structure is returned, otherwise the default structure is returned for the given calling sequence. This can improve the smoothness of edges at which the surface expression becomes undefined. Specifies whether the plotd3d command will attempt to adapt the domain if any of the initially computed values are not numeric. See the plot/options help page for options applicable to 2-D plots.įor an interactive method of exploring the options in the plot3d command, use the Interactive Plot Builder.
The help page for a particular command provides more detail about the plotting options it accepts. These options can be used with the plot3d command and are generally available to all Maple commands that generate 3-D plots. The options listed below may be provided to commands that create 3-D plots.
