Volume Visualization Commands

MATLAB supports commands that enable you to apply a variety of volume visualization techniques. The following table lists these functions.


Command	Purpose
`coneplot`	Plot velocity vectors as cones in 3-D vector fields
`contourslice`	Draw contours in volume slice planes
`isocaps`	Compute isosurface end-cap geometry
`isonormals`	Compute normals of isosurface vertices
`isosurface`	Extract isosurface data from volume data
`reducepatch`	Reduce the number of patch faces
`reducevolume`	Reduce the number of elements in a volume data set
`shrinkfaces`	Reduce the size of each patch face
`smooth3`	Smooth 3-D data
`slice`	Draw slice planes in volume
`stream2`	Compute 2-D stream line data
`stream3`	Compute 3-D stream line data
`streamline`	Draw stream lines from 2-D or 3-D vector data
`surf2patch`	Convert surface data to patch data
`subvolume`	Extract subset of volume data set

Each function name in this table links to a description of the function.
