bugs - What is wrong with White Background for a DockedCell?



Bug introduced in V10.4 or earlier and persists through V11.3




SetOptions[
EvaluationNotebook[]
, DockedCells -> Flatten @ {
Cell[
BoxData @ ToBoxes[Framed[InputForm@#, Background -> White]]
, CellFrameMargins -> 15
, CellMargins -> {{0, 0}, {0, 0}}
, Background -> #

] & /@ {
Inherited, Red, GrayLevel[1.], None, GrayLevel[.99], Blue
}}
]

Apparently you can not have White Background for a DockedCells.


And if you do not obey they will take your margins, too!


enter image description here


Any reasonable explanation?


Notice the None case is documented:




If Background->None is set, then the margins are only applied if a CellFrame is present. If the cell frame is not drawn on all sides, then the margin will only be applied to the sides with a frame setting.



V11.2 Win7



[CASE:3975061] was created




Answer




[...] It does appear as though DockedCells cannot have White as their Background specification. I have filed a report with our developers regarding this incorrect limitation so that they may investigate and look to address the issue in a future release. [...]

The workaround is to use 'almost' white:


SetOptions[EvaluationNotebook[]
, DockedCells -> Cell[
BoxData @ ToBoxes[Framed[InputForm@GrayLevel[.999]]]
, CellFrameMargins -> 15
, CellMargins -> {{0, 0}, {0, 0}}
, Background -> GrayLevel[.999]
]

]

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 - 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 - Mathematica: 3D plot based on combined 2D graphs

I have several sigmoidal fits to 3 different datasets, with mean fit predictions plus the 95% confidence limits (not symmetrical around the mean) and the actual data. I would now like to show these different 2D plots projected in 3D as in but then using proper perspective. In the link here they give some solutions to combine the plots using isometric perspective, but I would like to use proper 3 point perspective. Any thoughts? Also any way to show the mean points per time point for each series plus or minus the standard error on the mean would be cool too, either using points+vertical bars, or using spheres plus tubes. Below are some test data and the fit function I am using. Note that I am working on a logit(proportion) scale and that the final vertical scale is Log10(percentage). (* some test data *) data = Table[Null, {i, 4}]; data[[1]] = {{1, -5.8}, {2, -5.4}, {3, -0.8}, {4, -0.2}, {5, 4.6}, {1, -6.4}, {2, -5.6}, {3, -0.7}, {4, 0.04}, {5, 1.0}, {1, -6.8}, {2, -4.7}, {3, -1....
