Description (last modified by )
This ticket implements plot options to control the graphical display of polygons:
def plot(self, point={}, line={}, polygon={}, wireframe={}, fill={}, **kwds): """ Return a graphical representation. INPUT: - ``point``, ``line``, ``polygon`` -- Parameters to pass to point (0d), line (1d), and polygon (2d) plot commands. Allowed values are * Python dictionary: Passed as keywords to the plot commands. * String or triple of numbers: The color. This is equivalent to passing the dictionary ``{'color':...}``. * ``None`` or ``False``: Switch off drawing of the corresponding graphics options. - ``wireframe``, ``fill`` -- Similar to ``point`` / ``line`` / ``polygon``, but ``fill`` is used for the graphics objects in the dimension of the polytope and ``wireframe`` is used for all lower-dimensional graphics objects. - ``**kwds`` -- optional keyword parameters that are passed to all graphics objectcs. OUTPUT: A graphics object. TESTS:: sage: square = polytopes.n_cube(2) sage: plt = square.plot() sage: for p in plt: ... print p.options()['rgbcolor'], p (0, 0, 1) Point set defined by 4 point(s) (0, 0, 1) Line defined by 2 points (0, 0, 1) Line defined by 2 points (0, 0, 1) Line defined by 2 points (0, 0, 1) Line defined by 2 points (0, 1, 0) Polygon defined by 4 points Draw the lines in red and nothing else:: sage: plt = square.plot(point=None, line='red', polygon=False) sage: for p in plt: ... print p.options()['rgbcolor'], p red Line defined by 2 points red Line defined by 2 points red Line defined by 2 points red Line defined by 2 points Draw vertices in red, no lines, and a blue polygon:: sage: plt = square.plot(point={'color':'red'}, line=False, fill=(0,0,1)) sage: for p in plt: ... print p.options()['rgbcolor'], p red Point set defined by 4 point(s) (0, 0, 1) Polygon defined by 4 points """

By default the outline should be drawn in a different color than the fill for visual contrast.

No, about this ticket. So far, interior=green and outline=blue. With this patch everything is blue by default.

Oops, I had missed the default option for the interior! What about this new version of this patch?
Cheers,

Actually, I also needed that for 3D. The uploaded patch handles this!

Hellooooooooooooooooooo !!!
It looks like there is absolutely no way to guess from looking at [1] which options are accepted by all these methods... Would it be possible to add a list of them, or at least a pointer toward a place where those options are defined ?

That would be nice indeed! But that's for another ticket :-)

Another ticket will add the documentation of an option that you make available in this one ?

As you remarked on #14181, this is not quite correct. If you have a 1-d polyhedron in 2-d ambient space then the fill color (and not the outline color) should apply to the line.

All I need for #4327 is to be able to specify the color for all of the polyhedron. The patch implements just that, and leaves things as they were before the patch otherwise. If someone wants to go further and allow for customizing both the fill color and the ouline color, please go ahead!
But I for myself need to focus on those things were I am already way too late (like #4327, and more importantly the functorial construction patch.

It's documented and tested at a low level. I let Volker decide whether we want to advertise it right now at a high level, or wait until the interface is set in stone.

Hi Volker!
Yes, the user interface is much better as you did it! Thanks for the gift :-)
I ran some systematic tests and added them to the documentation/tests of plot. I stumbled on a couple corner cases, and reworked a bit the logic in plot. In particular, the default value for the colors is now handled by plot. A consequence is that the default coloring is uniform for all dimension, whereas we used to have:
- 2D: blue wireframe, light green (0,1,0) fill
- 3D: light green (0,1,0) fill, blue wireframe
- 0D, 1D: everything blue
Is that ok?
The default is currently set to "green" for the fill and "blue" for the wireframe, but feel free to change it to your taste. I also did a couple micro improvements to the doc. If you are happy with the reviewer patch, feel free to fold it in, customize the default colors and set a positive review on my behalf (assuming I did not screw up and the patchbot remains green of course).
Cheers,
Nicolas

Oh, just one thing: since there maybe several points, lines, and even polygons (3D), should the options be named points
,
lines
,
polygones
?

There may be multiple points but only one point option setting, which is why I settled on the singular. Also, none of the other plot options are plural afaik. Since you apparently don't have a particular preference either I'd say we keep it in singular.
Positive review to the revewer patch...

Great :-)
That might well be our first joint patch; it's been a pleasure!
And at the end of the day, I am actually going to use the point/line option to get a wireframe root system plot that my daughter can reproduce with her construction kit :-) So you were perfectly right it was to be done in full!

Oops. Thanks for catching this. Since anyway the patch header had to be updated for the reviewer's patch, I folded together the two patches and reposted the result. Now it's correct :-)

Question (likely dumb): could the behavior at this ask.sagemath question be related to this change (or #11634)? Thanks!
This is needed for #4327. Thanks!
