NAME
plmeshc - Magnitude colored plot surface mesh with contour. SYNOPSIS
plmeshc(x, y, z, nx, ny, opt, clevel, nlevel) DESCRIPTION
Identical to plmesh but with extra functionalities: the surface mesh can be colored accordingly to the current z value being plotted, a contour plot can be drawn at the base XY plane, and a curtain can be drawn between the plotted function border and the base XY plane. Redacted form: plmeshc(x, y, z, opt, clevel) This function is used in example 11. ARGUMENTS
x (PLFLT *, input) Pointer to set of x coordinate values at which the function is evaluated. y (PLFLT *, input) Pointer to set of y coordinate values at which the function is evaluated. z (PLFLT **, input) Pointer to a vectored two-dimensional array with set of function values. nx (PLINT, input) Number of x values at which function is evaluated. ny (PLINT, input) Number of y values at which function is evaluated. opt (PLINT, input) Determines the way in which the surface is represented. To specify more than one option just add the options, e.g. DRAW_LINEXY + MAG_COLOR opt=DRAW_LINEX: Lines are drawn showing z as a function of x for each value of y[j]. opt=DRAW_LINEY: Lines are drawn showing z as a function of y for each value of x[i]. opt=DRAW_LINEXY: Network of lines is drawn connecting points at which function is defined. opt=MAG_COLOR: Each line in the mesh is colored according to the z value being plotted. The color is used from the cur- rent colormap 1. opt=BASE_CONT: A contour plot is drawn at the base XY plane using parameters nlevel and clevel. opt=DRAW_SIDES: draws a curtain between the base XY plane and the borders of the plotted function. clevel (PLFLT *, input) Pointer to the array that defines the contour level spacing. nlevel (PLINT, input) Number of elements in the clevel array.

NAME
plfsurf3d - Plot shaded 3-d surface plot SYNOPSIS
plsurf3d(x, y, zops, zp, nx, ny, opt, clevel, nlevel) DESCRIPTION
Plots a three dimensional shaded surface plot within the environment set up by plw3d(3plplot). The surface is defined by the data contained in the 2D PLFLT ** matrix or the PLfGrid2 structure zp. How the data in zp is rendered is determined by the zops parameter. zops is a pointer to a function that reads the data out of the grid structure. The following functions in PLplot core will return an appropriate function pointer: plf2ops_c() (use when zp is of type PLFLT **), plf2ops_grid_c() (use when zp is a pointer to a row-major PLfGrid2 structure), plf2ops_grid_row_major() (same as plf2ops_grid_c()?) and plf2ops_grid_col_major() (use when zp is a pointer to a column- major PLfGrid2 structure). nx, nyoptclevel and nlevel are the same as in for example plsurf3d(3plplot). Redacted form? plfsurf3d(x, y, zops, zp, opt, clevel) This function is used in example 8. ARGUMENTS
x (PLFLT *, input) Pointer to set of x coordinate values at which the function is evaluated. y (PLFLT *, input) Pointer to set of y coordinate values at which the function is evaluated. zops (void (*) (?), input) Pointer to a function for processing the data contained in zp. zp (PLFLT ** or PLfGrid2 *, input) Pointer to the data to be plotted, either as a vectored two-dimensional array with set of function values, or as PLfGrid2 struc- ture. nx (PLINT, input) Number of x values at which function is evaluated. ny (PLINT, input) Number of y values at which function is evaluated. opt (PLINT, input) Determines the way in which the surface is represented. To specify more than one option just add the options, e.g. FACETED + SURF_CONT opt=FACETED: Network of lines is drawn connecting points at which function is defined. opt=BASE_CONT: A contour plot is drawn at the base XY plane using parameters nlevel and clevel. opt=SURF_CONT: A contour plot is drawn at the surface plane using parameters nlevel and clevel. opt=DRAW_SIDES: draws a curtain between the base XY plane and the borders of the plotted function. opt=MAG_COLOR: the surface is colored according to the value of Z; if MAG_COLOR is not used, then the default the surface is colored according to the intensity of the reflected light in the surface from a light source whose position is set using pllight- source(3plplot). clevel (PLFLT *, input) Pointer to the array that defines the contour level spacing. nlevel (PLINT, input) Number of elements in the clevel array.
