Options
|
|
•
|
The following options, indicated with lineopts in the calling sequence above, can be used when graphing a Line object:
|
|
The variable used in the vector form of the equation of a line. This is used for creating the caption. The default value is the value supplied when the Line object was created, or when no such value was supplied.
|
|
A list of plot options applied when constructing the graph for the line. For more information on plot options, see plot3d,options and plot,options.
|
|
A list of plot options applied when constructing the graph for a point on the line. For more information on plot options, see plot3d,options and plot,options.
|
|
A list of plot options applied to all parts of the graph. For more information on plot options, see plot3d,options and plot,options.
|
–
|
showline = true or false
|
|
Whether the line is shown in the graph. Default is true.
|
–
|
showvector = true or false
|
|
Whether the direction vector is shown in the graph (using an arrow). Default is true.
|
–
|
showpoint = true or false
|
|
Whether a point on the line is shown in the graph. Default is true.
|
|
A caption for the graph. It can be disabled by supplying the empty string, , as the caption, using the option .
|
•
|
The following options, indicated with planeopts in the calling sequence above, can be used when graphing a Plane object:
|
|
A list of plot options applied when constructing the graph for the plane. For more information on plot options, see plot3d,options.
|
|
A list of plot options applied when constructing the graph for a point on the plane. For more information on plot options, see plot3d,options.
|
|
A list of options applied when constructing the arrow. These are passed to the plots[arrow] command, so they can be general plot options (explained at plot3d,options) or options specific to plots[arrow].
|
|
A list of plot options applied to all parts of the graph. For more information on plot options, see plot3d,options.
|
–
|
showplane = true or false
|
|
Whether the plane is shown in the graph. Default is true.
|
–
|
showpoint = true or false
|
|
Whether the point is shown in the graph. Default is true.
|
–
|
shownormal = true or false
|
|
Whether the normal vector is shown in the graph. Default is true.
|
|
A caption for the graph. It can be disabled by supplying the empty string, , as the caption, using the option .
|

Description
|
|
•
|
The GetPlot command generates a graph of Line and Plane objects and their various characteristics. For Line objects, a point on the line and the direction vector are included by default. For Plane objects, a point on the plane and the normal vector are included by default.
