PlotRange
Usage
• PlotRange is an option for graphics functions that specifies what points to include in a plot.
Notes
• PlotRange can be used for both two- and three-dimensional graphics. • The following settings can be used:
| All | all points are included | | Automatic | outlying points are dropped | | {min, max} | explicit limits for (2D) or (3D) | {{ , }, { , }} | explicit limits for and (2D) | {{ , }, { , }, { , }} | explicit limits for , and (3D) |
• When no explicit limits are given for a particular coordinate, a setting of Automatic is assumed. • With the Automatic setting, the distribution of coordinate values is found, and any points sufficiently far out in the distribution are dropped. Such points are often produced as a result of singularities in functions being plotted. • Any explicit limit or pair {min, max} can be replaced by a specification such as All or Automatic. • A setting such as {min, Automatic} gives a particular minimum value for a coordinate, with a maximum value to be determined automatically. • AbsoluteOptions gives the explicit form of PlotRange specifications when Automatic settings are given. • New in Version 1.
