Mesh3d
Overview
The mesh3d
trace type is used to create 3D mesh plots, which visualize 3D surfaces defined by vertices and connections between them. Mesh plots are commonly used in 3D data visualization to represent geometric shapes, surfaces, and volumes.
You can customize the colors, vertex positions, and opacity to represent 3D data and geometries effectively.
Common Uses
- 3D Geometries: Visualizing surfaces and volumes in 3D space.
- Scientific Visualization: Representing complex 3D data in fields like physics, engineering, and geology.
- 3D Surface Rendering: Displaying 3D surfaces from a set of points and connectivity information.

- Determines how the mesh surface triangles are derived from the set of vertices (points) represented by the
x
,y
andz
arrays, if thei
,j
,k
arrays are not supplied. For general use ofmesh3d
it is preferred thati
,j
,k
are supplied. If -1, Delaunay triangulation is used, which is mainly suitable if the mesh is a single, more or less layer surface that is perpendicular todelaunayaxis
. In case thedelaunayaxis
intersects the mesh surface at more than one point it will result triangles that are very long in the dimension ofdelaunayaxis
. If >0, the alpha-shape algorithm is used. In this case, the positivealphahull
value signals the use of the alpha-shape algorithm, and its value acts as the parameter for the mesh fitting. If 0, the convex-hull algorithm is used. It is suitable for convex bodies or if the intention is to enclose thex
,y
andz
point set into a convex hull. - Determines whether the colorscale is a default palette (
autocolorscale: true
) or the palette determined bycolorscale
. In casecolorscale
is unspecified orautocolorscale
is true, the default palette will be chosen according to whether numbers in thecolor
array are all positive, all negative or mixed. - Determines whether or not the color domain is computed with respect to the input data (here
intensity
) or the bounds set incmin
andcmax
Defaults tofalse
whencmin
andcmax
are set by the user. - Sets the upper bound of the color domain. Value should have the same units as
intensity
and if set,cmin
must be set as well. - Sets the mid-point of the color domain by scaling
cmin
and/orcmax
to be equidistant to this point. Value should have the same units asintensity
. Has no effect whencauto
isfalse
. - Sets the lower bound of the color domain. Value should have the same units as
intensity
and if set,cmax
must be set as well. - Sets the color of the whole mesh
- Sets a reference to a shared color axis. References to these shared color axes are coloraxis, coloraxis2, coloraxis3, etc. Settings for these shared color axes are set in the layout, under
layout.coloraxis
,layout.coloraxis2
, etc. Note that multiple color scales can be linked to the same color axis. - Sets the color of padded area.
- Sets the axis line color.
- Sets the width (in px) or the border enclosing this color bar.
- Determines a formatting rule for the tick exponents. For example, consider the number 1,000,000,000. If none, it appears as 1,000,000,000. If e, 1e+9. If E, 1E+9. If power, 1x10^9 (with 9 in a super script). If SI, 1G. If B, 1B.
- Sets the length of the color bar This measure excludes the padding of both ends. That is, the color bar length is this length minus the padding on both ends.
- Determines whether this color bar's length (i.e. the measure in the color variation direction) is set in units of plot fraction or in *pixels. Use
len
to set the value. - Hide SI prefix for 10^n if |n| is below this number. This only has an effect when
tickformat
is SI or B. - Specifies the maximum number of ticks for the particular axis. The actual number of ticks will be chosen automatically to be less than or equal to
nticks
. Has an effect only iftickmode
is set to auto. - Sets the orientation of the colorbar.
- Sets the axis line color.
- Sets the width (in px) of the axis line.
- If "true", even 4-digit integers are separated
- If all, all exponents are shown besides their significands. If first, only the exponent of the first tick is shown. If last, only the exponent of the last tick is shown. If none, no exponents appear.
- Determines whether or not the tick labels are drawn.
- If all, all tick labels are displayed with a prefix. If first, only the first tick is displayed with a prefix. If last, only the last tick is displayed with a suffix. If none, tick prefixes are hidden.
- Same as
showtickprefix
but for tick suffixes. - Sets the thickness of the color bar This measure excludes the size of the padding, ticks and labels.
- Determines whether this color bar's thickness (i.e. the measure in the constant color direction) is set in units of plot fraction or in pixels. Use
thickness
to set the value. - Sets the angle of the tick labels with respect to the horizontal. For example, a
tickangle
of -90 draws the tick labels vertically. - Sets the tick color.
- HTML font family - the typeface that will be applied by the web browser. The web browser can only apply a font if it is available on the system where it runs. Provide multiple font families, separated by commas, to indicate the order in which to apply fonts if they aren't available.
- Sets the kind of decoration line(s) with text, such as an under, over or through as well as combinations e.g. under+over, etc.
- Sets the shape and color of the shadow behind text. auto places minimal shadow and applies contrast text font color. See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/text-shadow for additional options.
- Sets whether a font should be styled with a normal or italic face from its family.
- Sets capitalization of text. It can be used to make text appear in all-uppercase or all-lowercase, or with each word capitalized.
- Sets the variant of the font.
- Sets the weight (or boldness) of the font.
- Sets the tick label formatting rule using d3 formatting mini-languages which are very similar to those in Python. For numbers, see: https://github.com/d3/d3-format/tree/v1.4.5#d3-format. And for dates see: https://github.com/d3/d3-time-format/tree/v2.2.3#locale_format. We add two items to d3's date formatter: %h for half of the year as a decimal number as well as %{n}f for fractional seconds with n digits. For example, 2016-10-13 09:15:23.456 with tickformat %H~%M~%S.%2f would display 09~15~23.46
- Determines how we handle tick labels that would overflow either the graph div or the domain of the axis. The default value for inside tick labels is hide past domain. In other cases the default is hide past div.
- Determines where tick labels are drawn relative to the ticks. Left and right options are used when
orientation
is h, top and bottom whenorientation
is v. - Sets the spacing between tick labels as compared to the spacing between ticks. A value of 1 (default) means each tick gets a label. A value of 2 means shows every 2nd label. A larger value n means only every nth tick is labeled.
tick0
determines which labels are shown. Not implemented for axes withtype
log or multicategory, or whentickmode
is array. - Sets the tick length (in px).
- Sets the tick mode for this axis. If auto, the number of ticks is set via
nticks
. If linear, the placement of the ticks is determined by a starting positiontick0
and a tick stepdtick
(linear is the default value iftick0
anddtick
are provided). If array, the placement of the ticks is set viatickvals
and the tick text isticktext
. (array is the default value iftickvals
is provided). - Sets a tick label prefix.
- Determines whether ticks are drawn or not. If , this axis' ticks are not drawn. If outside (inside), this axis' are drawn outside (inside) the axis lines.
- Sets a tick label suffix.
- Sets the text displayed at the ticks position via
tickvals
. Only has an effect iftickmode
is set to array. Used withtickvals
. - Sets the source reference on Chart Studio Cloud for
ticktext
. - Sets the values at which ticks on this axis appear. Only has an effect if
tickmode
is set to array. Used withticktext
. - Sets the source reference on Chart Studio Cloud for
tickvals
. - Sets the tick width (in px).
- HTML font family - the typeface that will be applied by the web browser. The web browser can only apply a font if it is available on the system where it runs. Provide multiple font families, separated by commas, to indicate the order in which to apply fonts if they aren't available.

- Determines the location of color bar's title with respect to the color bar. Defaults to top when
orientation
if v and defaults to right whenorientation
if h. - Sets the title of the color bar.
- Sets the x position with respect to
xref
of the color bar (in plot fraction). Whenxref
is paper, defaults to 1.02 whenorientation
is v and 0.5 whenorientation
is h. Whenxref
is container, defaults to 1 whenorientation
is v and 0.5 whenorientation
is h. Must be between 0 and 1 ifxref
is container and between -2 and 3 ifxref
is paper. - Sets this color bar's horizontal position anchor. This anchor binds the
x
position to the left, center or right of the color bar. Defaults to left whenorientation
is v and center whenorientation
is h. - Sets the amount of padding (in px) along the x direction.
- Sets the container
x
refers to. container spans the entirewidth
of the plot. paper refers to the width of the plotting area only. - Sets the y position with respect to
yref
of the color bar (in plot fraction). Whenyref
is paper, defaults to 0.5 whenorientation
is v and 1.02 whenorientation
is h. Whenyref
is container, defaults to 0.5 whenorientation
is v and 1 whenorientation
is h. Must be between 0 and 1 ifyref
is container and between -2 and 3 ifyref

y
position to the top, middle or bottom of the color bar. Defaults to middle whenorientation
is v and bottom whenorientation
is h. - Sets the amount of padding (in px) along the y direction.
- Sets the container
y
refers to. container spans the entireheight
of the plot. paper refers to the height of the plotting area only. - Sets the colorscale. The colorscale must be an array containing arrays mapping a normalized value to an rgb, rgba, hex, hsl, hsv, or named color string. At minimum, a mapping for the lowest (0) and highest (1) values are required. For example,
[[0, 'rgb(0,0,255)'], [1, 'rgb(255,0,0)']]
. To control the bounds of the colorscale in color space, usecmin
andcmax
. Alternatively,colorscale

values for example a value greater than or equal to 0.5 on two surfaces (and 0.25 with four surfaces), an overlay of multiple transparent surfaces may not perfectly be sorted in depth by the webgl API. This behavior may be improved in the near future and is subject to change. - Reverses the color mapping if true. If true,
cmin
will correspond to the last color in the array andcmax
will correspond to the first color. - Sets a reference between this trace's 3D coordinate system and a 3D scene. If scene (the default value), the (x,y,z) coordinates refer to
layout.scene
. If scene2, the (x,y,z) coordinates refer tolayout.scene2
, and so on. - Determines whether or not an item corresponding to this trace is shown in the legend.
- Determines whether or not a colorbar is displayed for this trace.
- Sets the maximum number of points to keep on the plots from an incoming stream. If
maxpoints
is set to 50, only the newest 50 points will be displayed on the plot. - The stream id number links a data trace on a plot with a stream. See https://chart-studio.plotly.com/settings for more details.
- Sets the text elements associated with the vertices. If trace
hoverinfo
contains a text flag and hovertext is not set, these elements will be seen in the hover labels. - Sets the source reference on Chart Studio Cloud for
text
. - Assign an id to this trace, Use this to provide object constancy between traces during animations and transitions.
- Sets the color of each vertex Overrides color. While Red, green and blue colors are in the range of 0 and 255; in the case of having vertex color data in RGBA format, the alpha color should be normalized to be between 0 and 1.
- Sets the source reference on Chart Studio Cloud for
vertexcolor
. - Determines whether or not this trace is visible. If legendonly, the trace is not drawn, but can appear as a legend item (provided that the legend itself is visible).
- Sets the X coordinates of the vertices. The nth element of vectors
x
,y
andz
jointly represent the X, Y and Z coordinates of the nth vertex. - Sets the calendar system to use with
x
date data. - Sets the hover text formatting rulefor

using d3 formatting mini-languages which are very similar to those in Python. For numbers, see: https://github.com/d3/d3-format/tree/v1.4.5#d3-format. And for dates see: https://github.com/d3/d3-time-format/tree/v2.2.3#locale_format. We add two items to d3's date formatter: %h for half of the year as a decimal number as well as %{n}f for fractional seconds with n digits. For example, 2016-10-13 09:15:23.456 with tickformat %H~%M~%S.%2f would display 09~15~23.46By default the values are formatted usingxaxis.hoverformat
