I have a parametric plot where I am simply creating a line in 3-
space. I will later combine it with a surface.
If v5.2 the following worked well.
surfaceline = ParametricPlot3D[{x1, x2star, f[x1, x2star],
{RGBColor[0.3`, 0.5`, 0.9`],
Thickness[0.011`]}}, {x1, -8, 8}, DisplayFunction -> Identity];
This gives a nice thick line on which I can control the color and
thickness to have it show up properly on the surface.
I get the ParametricPlot3D::legacycolfunc: Use ColorFunction to
specify coloring error which has been discussed in earlier posts. But
I cannot see how to use what is shown there to get just on color and
one on which I can control the thickness.
I am basically plotting the points on the surface that satisfy a
linear relationship between x1 and x2.
Any ideas?
