FaceGrids

FaceGrids

is an option for three-dimensional graphics functions that specifies grid lines to draw on the faces of the bounding box.

Details

  • The following settings can be given for FaceGrids:
  • Noneno grid lines drawn
    Allgrid lines drawn on all faces
    {face1,face2,…}grid lines drawn on the specified faces
    {{face1,{xgrid1,ygrid1}},…}details of grid lines specified
  • Faces are specified as {dirx,diry,dirz}, where two of the diri must be 0, and the third one must be +1 or -1.
  • For example, the x‐y face with smallest z value is specified as {0,0,-1}.
  • For each face, specifications {xgridi,ygridi} can be given to determine the arrangement of grid lines. These specifications have the form described in the notes for GridLines.
  • FaceGridsStyle gives default styles to use for face grids. »
