Change edge color of pgfplots patches
2,177
You can change the color of the edge lines by setting faceted color=<color>
, or disable them completely by setting faceted color=none
.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{pgfplots}
\pgfplotsset{compat=1.9}
\pagestyle{empty}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\begin{axis}[%
view={-213.5}{18},
xmin=0,
xmax=1,
ymin=0,
ymax=1,
zmin=0,
zmax=1
]
\addplot3[
patch,
patch type=triangle,
color=red!25,
faceted color=black
]
table[row sep=crcr, point meta=\thisrow{c}] {%
x y z c\\
0 0 0 0\\
0 0.3 1 0\\
0.3 0 0.5 0\\};
\end{axis}
\end{tikzpicture}%
\end{document}

I am plotting patches and do not want them to be colored according to their z-values. Instead, I want to define the colors by myself.
Here is an example:
\addplot3[area legend,patch,forget plot,patch type=triangle,color=red,opacity=0.8] table[row sep=crcr, point meta=\thisrow{c}] {% x y z c\\ 0 0 0 0\\ 0 0.3 0 0\\ 0.3 0 0 0\\ };
I can override the color with color=red, but the edge color of the patches is still plotted in different Colors:
I can't find the appropriate parameter to change them to black. Has anyone an idea of how to do that?
Here is a full example:
\documentclass{article} \usepackage{pgfplots} \pgfplotsset{compat=1.9} \pagestyle{empty} \begin{document} \begin{figure}[htb] \centering \begin{tikzpicture} \begin{axis}[% width=0.5\linewidth, height=0.5\linewidth, view={-213.5}{18}, scale only axis, xmin=0, xmax=1, ymin=0, ymax=1, zmin=0, zmax=1, axis x line*=bottom, axis y line*=left, axis z line*=left] \addplot3[area legend,patch,forget plot,patch type=triangle,color=white,opacity=0.8] table[row sep=crcr, point meta=\thisrow{c}] {% x y z c\\ 0 0 0 0\\ 0 0.3 1 0\\ 0.3 0 0.5 0\\}; \end{axis} \end{tikzpicture}% \end{figure} \end{document}

Zarko about 9 yearsWill 'draw=<desired colour>' help? I cannot test this since you didn't provide MWE.

Simon about 9 yearsSorry, I added a full example. Draw does not help.

Jake about 9 yearsI see you've unaccepted my answer and accepted yours instead. Could you explain why you prefer this solution over the
faceted color
approach?
