Plotting meshes without viz
ga72kud opened this issue · comments
I would like to use the plot function (using Plots) for some meshes
points = Point2[(0,0), (1,0), (0,1), (1,1), (0.25,0.5), (0.75,0.5)]
tris = connect.([(1,5,3), (4,6,2)], Triangle)
quads = connect.([(1,2,6,5), (4,3,5,6)], Quadrangle)
mesh = SimpleMesh(points, [tris; quads])
plot!(mesh, showfacets = true)I want to adapt the visual appearance and changing the facet width for bigger dimensions.
points = Point2[(300,-220), (440,-220), (300,-140), (440,-140), (330,-180), (360,-180)]
tris = connect.([(1,5,3), (4,6,2)], Triangle)
quads = connect.([(1,2,6,5), (4,3,5,6)], Quadrangle)
mesh = SimpleMesh(points, [tris; quads])
plot!(mesh, showfacets = true, linewidth=5)
@ga72kud this packages exports a single function called viz and its variant viz!. Can you try use that instead. The examples you showed should work except for the linewidth option.
I figured it out alpha=.2
I use plot! instead of viz! and works fine. What is the difference? What is better to use viz!
@ga72kud plot is the default command in Makie to plot objects. viz is a recipe for Meshes.jl objects. You are probably confusing these two.
If you are using Meshes.jl already then it makes sense to use MeshViz.jl
Yes I know and I want to use both in one application. I figured out it works. So I was wondering
Yes, you can combine different plotting commands in Makie to make your final scene. The MeshViz.jl project only knows how to plot objects from Meshes.jl using viz. I don't think plot will work with the objects therein.
