plotting - PlotRange precision limit?

I'm trying to plot a set of points with 9 digits precision with a properly range labelling Y-axis, from a previous question I got two possible ways of doing this:

1st: suggested by @Carl Woll Using BaseStyle -> {PrintPrecision -> 9} as a option in listplot, but Mathematica just seems to ignore the option:

ListPlot[RandomVariate[NormalDistribution[0.8037709, 10^-10], 20], 
 PlotRange -> {0.80377085, 0.80377095}, 
 BaseStyle -> {PrintPrecision -> 9}]

2nd: suggested by @george2079 using this Ticks options:

ListPlot[RandomVariate[NormalDistribution[0.8037709, 10^-10], 20], 
 PlotRange -> {0.80377085, 0.80377095}, 
 Ticks -> {Automatic, {#, NumberForm[N@#, {12, 9}]} & /@ 

    FindDivisions[{0.80377085, 0.80377095}, 10]}]

Both options work fine if PlotRange has 7 digit precision or less, but don't show good results for 8+ digits range, any ideas how to deal with this?

Answer

The problem with my BaseStyle->{PrintPrecision->10} suggestion in M11 is that ListPlot ignores the PlotRange option. So, one can instead use Show afterwards to get the right PlotRange. In M11:

Show[
    ListPlot[
        RandomVariate[NormalDistribution[0.8037709,10^-10],20],
        BaseStyle->{PrintPrecision->10}

    ],
    PlotRange->{{0,20},{0.8037708995,0.8037709005}}
]

plotting - Filling between two spheres in SphericalPlot3D

Manipulate[ SphericalPlot3D[{1, 2 - n}, {θ, 0, Pi}, {ϕ, 0, 1.5 Pi}, Mesh -> None, PlotPoints -> 15, PlotRange -> {-2.2, 2.2}], {n, 0, 1}] I cant' seem to be able to make a filling between two spheres. I've already tried the obvious Filling -> {1 -> {2}} but Mathematica doesn't seem to like that option. Is there any easy way around this or ... Answer There is no built-in filling in SphericalPlot3D . One option is to use ParametricPlot3D to draw the surfaces between the two shells: Manipulate[ Show[SphericalPlot3D[{1, 2 - n}, {θ, 0, Pi}, {ϕ, 0, 1.5 Pi}, PlotPoints -> 15, PlotRange -> {-2.2, 2.2}], ParametricPlot3D[{ r {Sin[t] Cos[1.5 Pi], Sin[t] Sin[1.5 Pi], Cos[t]}, r {Sin[t] Cos[0 Pi], Sin[t] Sin[0 Pi], Cos[t]}}, {r, 1, 2 - n}, {t, 0, Pi}, PlotStyle -> Yellow, Mesh -> {2, 15}]], {n, 0, 1}]

plotting - Plot 4D data with color as 4th dimension

I have a list of 4D data (x position, y position, amplitude, wavelength). I want to plot x, y, and amplitude on a 3D plot and have the color of the points correspond to the wavelength. I have seen many examples using functions to define color but my wavelength cannot be expressed by an analytic function. Is there a simple way to do this? Answer Here a another possible way to visualize 4D data: data = Flatten[Table[{x, y, x^2 + y^2, Sin[x - y]}, {x, -Pi, Pi,Pi/10}, {y,-Pi,Pi, Pi/10}], 1]; You can use the function Point along with VertexColors . Now the points are places using the first three elements and the color is determined by the fourth. In this case I used Hue, but you can use whatever you prefer. Graphics3D[ Point[data[[All, 1 ;; 3]], VertexColors -> Hue /@ data[[All, 4]]], Axes -> True, BoxRatios -> {1, 1, 1/GoldenRatio}]

plotting - Adding a thick curve to a regionplot

Suppose we have the following simple RegionPlot: f[x_] := 1 - x^2 g[x_] := 1 - 0.5 x^2 RegionPlot[{y < f[x], f[x] < y < g[x], y > g[x]}, {x, 0, 2}, {y, 0, 2}] Now I'm trying to change the curve defined by $y=g[x]$ into a thick black curve, while leaving all other boundaries in the plot unchanged. I've tried adding the region $y=g[x]$ and playing with the plotstyle, which didn't work, and I've tried BoundaryStyle, which changed all the boundaries in the plot. Now I'm kinda out of ideas... Any help would be appreciated! Answer With f[x_] := 1 - x^2 g[x_] := 1 - 0.5 x^2 You can use Epilog to add the thick line: RegionPlot[{y < f[x], f[x] < y < g[x], y > g[x]}, {x, 0, 2}, {y, 0, 2}, PlotPoints -> 50, Epilog -> (Plot[g[x], {x, 0, 2}, PlotStyle -> {Black, Thick}][[1]]), PlotStyle -> {Directive[Yellow, Opacity[0.4]], Directive[Pink, Opacity[0.4]],
