front end - Making cells group


After reading rcollyer's post I'm still not able to understand how grouping rules work. Here is a problem I'm facing. What I want is to create a new title, section and subsection styles. I want the title to group everything below till the next title. The section should group everything below till the next section. To see what I mean, open up a new notebook. Go to Format > Edit Stylesheet....


On this stylesheet make a new cell. Then select this cell and go to Cell > Show Expression.


Here enter the following:


Cell[StyleData["MyTitle"],
 CellGroupingRules->{"MyTitleGrouping", 0},
 CounterIncrements->"MyTitle",

 CounterAssignments->{{"MySection", 0}, {"MySubsection", 0}},
 FontSize->26,
]

Once this has been entered now go to Cell > Show Expression to revert back. Let us create two more cells in the same fashion, one for the section and subsection.


Cell[StyleData["MySection"],
 CellGroupingRules->{"MyTitleGrouping", 10},
 CounterIncrements->"MySection",
 CounterAssignments->{{"MySubsection", 0}},
 CellFrameLabels->{{

    Cell[
     TextData[
      CounterBox["MySection"], " -"], CellBaseline -> Baseline], Inherited}, {
   Inherited, Inherited}},
 FontSize->20,
]

Finally, the subsection:


Cell[StyleData["MySubsection"],
 CellGroupingRules->{"MyTitleGrouping", 20},

 CellFrameLabels->{{
    Cell[
     TextData[
      CounterBox["MySection"], ".", 
      CounterBox["MySubsection"], " -"], CellBaseline -> Baseline], 
    Inherited}, {Inherited, Inherited}},
 CounterIncrements->"MySubsection",
 FontSize->16,
]


After creating those new styles, now we can use them, here is a screenshot of what I obtained if I use the "MyTitle", "MySection" and "MySubsection" styles.

Don't mind the text I entered there. The main point here is that there is no grouping.


How can I make it behave as the regular "Title", "Section" and "Subsection" styles?

Answer



You are inventing your own grouping types. If you open the Options Inspector and go to Cell Options -> General Properties -> CellGroupingRules the drop-down shows several options available: "NormalGrouping", "TitleGrouping", "SectionGrouping", "InputGrouping", "OutputGrouping", "GraphicsGrouping", "GroupTogetherGrouping", and "GroupTogetherNestedGrouping".


You have used "MyTitleGrouping" which is not part of the list. Per my previous question, what you are looking for is "TitleGrouping" for "MyTitle" and "SectionGrouping" for "MySection" and "MySubSection". Implementing these changes, your code becomes:


Cell[StyleData["MyTitle"],
 CellGroupingRules->{"TitleGrouping", 0},

 CounterIncrements->"MyTitle",
 CounterAssignments->{{"MySection", 0}, {"MySubsection", 0}},
 FontSize->26,
]

Cell[StyleData["MySection"],
 CellGroupingRules->{"SectionGrouping", 10},
 CounterIncrements->"MySection",
 CounterAssignments->{{"MySubsection", 0}},
 CellFrameLabels->{{

    Cell[
     TextData[
      CounterBox["MySection"], " -"], CellBaseline -> Baseline], Inherited}, {
   Inherited, Inherited}},
 FontSize->20,
]

Cell[StyleData["MySubsection"],
 CellGroupingRules->{"SectionGrouping", 20},
 CellFrameLabels->{{

    Cell[
     TextData[
      CounterBox["MySection"], ".", 
      CounterBox["MySubsection"], " -"], CellBaseline -> Baseline], 
    Inherited}, {Inherited, Inherited}},
 CounterIncrements->"MySubsection",
 FontSize->16,
]



Here's the end result, for a simple notebook:

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]],
