Hi everybody. I have a general problem with the coloring method of
ColofFunction. Let's consider a plane of points that one wants to plot
with ListPointPlot3D. If I want to color the points according to their
x position, I write:
ListPointPlot3D[Flatten[Table[Table[{i, j, 0}, {j, -30, 30}], {i, -30,
30}], 1], ColorFunction -> Function[{x, y, z}, RGBColor[x, 0, 0]]]
and that indeed works. But if I want to color according to the
absolute value of x and use
ColorFunction -> Function[{x, y, z}, RGBColor[Abs[x], 0, 0]]
the coloring is not symmetrical around the x=0 position, but
identical to the previous case. Another problem is to obtain a radial
coloring with
ColorFunction -> Function[{x, y, z}, RGBColor[x^2+y^2, 0, 0]]
where the origin of the radial coloring is not at {0,0} but somewhere
on the edge of the plot. Anyone knows how to control that coloring ?
Thanks.
Guillaume
