set_plot_colors

opstool.vis.pyvista.set_plot_colors(**kwargs)[source]

Set the display color of various element types.

Return type:

None

Parameters

kwargs: optional keyword arguments, including:
  • pointstr, list[int, int, int], optional

    Color for nodal points. Either a string, RGB list, or hex color string. For example, point='white', point='w', point=[1, 1, 1], or point='#FFFFFF'.

  • framestr, list[int, int, int], optional

    Color for frame elements.

  • trussstr, list[int, int, int], optional

    Color for truss elements.

  • linkstr, list[int, int, int], optional

    Color for link elements.

  • shellstr, list[int, int, int], optional

    Color for shell elements.

  • planestr, list[int, int, int], optional

    Color for plane elements.

  • brickstr, list[int, int, int], optional

    Color for brick (solid) elements.

  • tetstr, list[int, int, int], optional

    Color for tetrahedral (solid) elements.

  • jointstr, list[int, int, int], optional

    Color for beam-column joint elements.

  • contactstr, list[int, int, int], optional

    Color for contact elements.

  • pfemstr, list[int, int, int], optional

    Color for PFEM elements.

  • constraintstr, list[int, int, int], optional

    Color for constraint.

  • bcstr, list[int, int, int], optional

    Color for boundary conditions.

  • cmapstr, list, optional

    Name of the Matplotlib colormap to us when mapping the scalars. See available Matplotlib colormaps. Only applicable for when displaying scalars. Requires Matplotlib to be installed. colormap is also an accepted alias for this. If colorcet or cmocean are installed, their colormaps can be specified by name.

    You can also specify a list of colors to override an existing colormap with a custom one. For example, to create a three color colormap you might specify ['green', 'red', 'blue'].

  • cmap_modelstr, list, optional, default=None

    Matplotlib colormap used for geometry model visualization. Same as cmap, except that this parameter will be used for geometry model visualization and will be automatically mapped according to different element types. If None, If None, the color specified in the function``set_plot_colors`` will be used.

    Available color maps are shown in Colormaps in Matplotlib

  • nodal_label: str, default=”#048243”

    Color for nodal label.

  • ele_label: str, default=”#650021”

    Color for element label.

Returns

None
