MaplePrimes - answers and comments on Question, coloring a plane in 3Dplot

try something like this

Here an example from my stuff:

Define some fonts:

> axesfonts:=axesfont=[TIMES,ROMAN,8]:
> labelfonts:=labelfont=[TIMES,ROMAN,10]:

Define some colors:

> myblue:=COLOR(RGB,.1,0,.55):
> myred:=COLOR(RGB,.9,.1,0):
> mygreen:=COLOR(RGB,.0,.5,.0):

Define the style of plot:

> plotopts:=style=patchcontour, shading=none,axes=boxed:

The plot itself (here an implicit plot):

> xmin:=0, etc.

> p:=plots[implicitplot3d]({f},x=xmin..xmax,y=ymin..ymax,z=zmin..zmax, numpoints=10000, plotopts, colour=myblue):
> display3d({p}, axesfonts, labelfonts, orientation=[-115,15]);

i mean in a 3d shape how can

i mean in a 3d shape how can i clear maple to color a surface of the shape in a color different from the color of other sections of the shape?

A Simple Way

You don't need to define colours, and the axes are up to you. Define the parts in different commands and combine them usig 'display'. Here is an example.

A:=plot3d(sin(x+y),x=-5..5,y=-5..5):

B:=plot3d(0.75,x=-5..5,y=-5.5,color=blue):

plots[display](A,B);

i dont want to combine 2 plot!

i just want to color some portion of one plot,

ie. if i have a stair shape, color one surface of it (that is for example in z=3) in diff color than other potions of my shape.
