TextureCoordinateScaling
is an option to Plot3D and similar functions that specifies whether arguments supplied to a texture coordinate function should be scaled to lie between 0 and 1.
Details
- The usual default setting is TextureCoordinateScaling->True .
- With TextureCoordinateScaling->False , original unscaled values are fed to the texture coordinate function.
- TextureCoordinateScaling->{s1,s2,…} takes si to specify whether to scale argument i of the texture coordinate function.
- Scaling is done so as to make the minimum and maximum values of all variables lie between 0 and 1.
Examples
Basic Examples (2)
Parameters to TextureCoordinateFunction are normally scaled to be between 0 and 1:
