plotting - PlotStyle in ListPlot: change color scheme, manually choose color of first plot


Say i have this data:


data1 = Map[Cos, Range[0, 20]];
data2 = Map[Sin, Range[0, 20]];

And i want to plot data1 in gray and a chosen set (with Manipulate) of multiplicities of data2 in several other colors. This code does what I mean:


Manipulate[

ListLinePlot[{data1, Sequence @@ Table[data2*i, {i, k}]},
PlotStyle -> {LightGray,
Sequence @@ ConstantArray[Automatic, Length[k]]}], {{k, {1,
2}}, {1, 2, 3, 4}, ControlType -> CheckboxBar}]

I managed to make it work to only plot data1 in gray and the multiplicities of data2 in automatic colors, but now I'm stuck at the standard color scheme, although PlotStyle accepts ColorData. For example:


PlotStyle -> ColorData[3, "ColorList"]

However I don't know how to implement this with the condition that the first plot should be gray.


Question: Is there a way to change the color scheme in ListPlot AND manually choose the color of the first plot?




Answer



You can try this:


data1 = Map[Cos, Range[0, 20]];
data2 = Map[Sin, Range[0, 20]];
Manipulate[
G1 = ListLinePlot[data1, PlotStyle -> {Thick, c0},
PlotRange -> {-4, 4}];
G2 = ListLinePlot[Table[data2*i, {i, k}], PlotStyle -> Thick,
ColorFunction -> Function[{x1, x2}, ColorData[c1][x2]]];
Show[G2, G1],

{{k, {1, 2, 3, 4}}, {1, 2, 3, 4}, ControlType -> CheckboxBar},
{c0, Gray, ColorSlider},
{c1, ColorData["Gradients"], PopupMenu}]

Result:

You can also try this if you want to manually choose every color:


data1 = Map[Cos, Range[0, 20]];
data2 = Map[Sin, Range[0, 20]];
Manipulate[

ListLinePlot[{data1, Sequence @@ Table[data2*i, {i, k}]},
PlotStyle -> {{c0, Sequence @@ ConstantArray[Automatic, Length[k]]}, c1, c2, c3, c4}],
{{k, {1, 2}}, {1, 2, 3, 4}, ControlType -> CheckboxBar},
{c0, Gray, ColorSlider},
{c1, Red, ColorSlider},
{c2, Green, ColorSlider},
{c3, Blue, ColorSlider},
{c4, Yellow, ColorSlider}]

Result:

front end - keyboard shortcut to invoke Insert new matrix

I frequently need to type in some matrices, and the menu command Insert > Table/Matrix > New... allows matrices with lines drawn between columns and rows, which is very helpful. I would like to make a keyboard shortcut for it, but cannot find the relevant frontend token command (4209405) for it. Since the FullForm[] and InputForm[] of matrices with lines drawn between rows and columns is the same as those without lines, it's hard to do this via 3rd party system-wide text expanders (e.g. autohotkey or atext on mac). How does one assign a keyboard shortcut for the menu item Insert > Table/Matrix > New... , preferably using only mathematica? Thanks! Answer In the MenuSetup.tr (for linux located in the $InstallationDirectory/SystemFiles/FrontEnd/TextResources/X/ directory), I changed the line MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog"] to read MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog", MenuKey["m", Modifiers-...

mathematical optimization - Minimizing using indices, error: Part::pkspec1: The expression cannot be used as a part specification

I want to use Minimize where the variables to minimize are indices pointing into an array. Here a MWE that hopefully shows what my problem is. vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@ { Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; Minimize[{Total@((vec1[[#]] - vec2[[u[#]]])^2 & /@ Range[1, 3]), cons}, vars, Integers] The error I get: Part::pkspec1: The expression u[1] cannot be used as a part specification. >> Answer Ok, it seems that one can get around Mathematica trying to evaluate vec2[[u[1]]] too early by using the function Indexed[vec2,u[1]] . The working MWE would then look like the following: vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@{ Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; NMinimize[ {Total@((vec1[[#]] - Indexed[vec2, u[#]])^2 & /@ R...
