surface

surface(x, y, z)

Plots a surface, where (x, y) define a grid whose heights are the entries in z . x and y may be Vectors which define a regular grid, or Matrices which define an irregular grid.

Surface has the conversion trait ContinuousSurface <: SurfaceLike .

Attributes

Specific to `Surface`

lowclip::Union{Nothing, Symbol, <:Colorant} = nothing sets a color for any value below the colorrange.
highclip::Union{Nothing, Symbol, <:Colorant} = nothing sets a color for any value above the colorrange.
invert_normals::Bool = false inverts the normals generated for the surface. This can be useful to illuminate the other side of the surface.

Generic

visible::Bool = true sets whether the plot will be rendered or not.
overdraw::Bool = false sets whether the plot will draw over other plots. This specifically means ignoring depth checks in GL backends.
transparency::Bool = false adjusts how the plot deals with transparency. In GLMakie transparency = true results in using Order Independent Transparency.
fxaa::Bool = true adjusts whether the plot is rendered with fxaa (anti-aliasing).
inspectable::Bool = true sets whether this plot should be seen by DataInspector .
depth_shift::Float32 = 0f0 adjusts the depth value of a plot after all other transformations, i.e. in clip space, where 0 <= depth <= 1 . This only applies to GLMakie and WGLMakie and can be used to adjust render order (like a tunable overdraw).
model::Makie.Mat4f sets a model matrix for the plot. This replaces adjustments made with translate! , rotate! and scale! .
colormap::Union{Symbol, Vector{<:Colorant}} = :viridis sets the colormap that is sampled for numeric color s.
colorrange::Tuple{<:Real, <:Real} sets the values representing the start and end points of colormap .
nan_color::Union{Symbol, <:Colorant} = RGBAf(0,0,0,0) sets a replacement color for color = NaN .
space::Symbol = :data sets the transformation space for vertices generated by surface. See Makie.spaces() for possible inputs.

Generic 3D

shading = true enables lighting.
diffuse::Vec3f = Vec3f(0.4) sets how strongly the red, green and blue channel react to diffuse (scattered) light.
specular::Vec3f = Vec3f(0.2) sets how strongly the object reflects light in the red, green and blue channels.
shininess::Real = 32.0 sets how sharp the reflection is.
ssao::Bool = false adjusts whether the plot is rendered with ssao (screen space ambient occlusion). Note that this only makes sense in 3D plots and is only applicable with fxaa = true .

Examples

using GLMakie


xs = LinRange(0, 10, 100)
ys = LinRange(0, 15, 100)
zs = [cos(x) * sin(y) for x in xs, y in ys]

surface(xs, ys, zs, axis=(type=Axis3,))
