Plots.jl recipes

PlantGeom.jl provides recipes to make plots using Plots.jl. The only recipe so far is to make a diagram of the MTG tree. This is especially useful to control the integrity of and MTG (where it branches, where are the different scales...).

To use this recipe, simply use Plots.jl and any backend, though we recommend PlotlyJS to make the plot interactive.

The plot recipe provides some arguments to customize the plot:

  • mode = "2d": The mode for plotting, either "2d" or "3d"
  • node_color = :black: the node color, can be a color or any MTG attribute
  • edge_color = node_color: same as node_color, but for the edges
  • colormap = :viridis: the colormap used for coloring
  • color_missing = RGBA(0, 0, 0, 0.3): The color used for missing values
using Plots
# import Pkg; Pkg.add("PlotlyJS")
plotlyjs()
opf = read_opf(joinpath(dirname(dirname(pathof(PlantGeom))),"test","files","simple_plant.opf"))
plot(opf, node_color = :Length)

The default plot is a 2D projection of the MTG, but you can also get a 3D projection using the mode keyword argument:

plot(opf, node_color = :Length, mode = "3d")
