n)XYZ
triplet.
You can specify LineSpec
for some triplets and omit it for others. For
example, plot3(X1,Y1,Z1,'o',X2,Y2,Z2)
specifies markers for the first
triplet but not for the second triplet.
Table Data
plot3(
plots the variables tbl
,xvar
,yvar
,zvar
)xvar
, yvar
, and
zvar
from the table tbl
. To plot one data set,
specify one variable each for xvar
, yvar
, and
zvar
. To plot multiple data sets, specify multiple variables for at
least one of those arguments. The arguments that specify multiple variables must specify
the same number of variables. (since R2022a)
Additional Options
plot3(
displays the plot
in the target axes. Specify the axes as the first argument in any of the previous
syntaxes.ax
,___)
plot3(___,
specifies
Name,Value
)Line
properties using one or more name-value pair arguments. Specify
the properties after all other input arguments. For a list of properties, see Line Properties.
returns a
p
= plot3(___)Line
object or an array of Line
objects. Use
p
to modify properties of the plot after creating it. For a list of
properties, see Line Properties.
Examples
Plot 3-D Helix
Define t
as a vector of values between 0 and 10. Define st
and ct
as vectors of sine and cosine values. Then plot st
, ct
, and t
.
t = 0:pi/50:10*pi; st = sin(t); ct = cos(t); plot3(st,ct,t)
Plot Multiple Lines
Create two sets of x-, y-, and z-coordinates.
t = 0:pi/500:pi; xt1 = sin(t).*cos(10*t); yt1 = sin(t).*sin(10*t); zt1 = cos(t); xt2 = sin(t).*cos(12*t); yt2 = sin(t).*sin(12*t); zt2 = cos(t);
Call the plot3
function, and specify consecutive XYZ
triplets.
plot3(xt1,yt1,zt1,xt2,yt2,zt2)
Plot Multiple Lines Using Matrices
Create matrix X
containing three rows of x-coordinates. Create matrix Y
containing three rows of y-coordinates.
t = 0:pi/500:pi; X(1,:) = sin(t).*cos(10*t); X(2,:) = sin(t).*cos(12*t); X(3,:) = sin(t).*cos(20*t); Y(1,:) = sin(t).*sin(10*t); Y(2,:) = sin(t).*sin(12*t); Y(3,:) = sin(t).*sin(20*t);
Create matrix Z
containing the z-coordinates for all three sets.
Z = cos(t);
Plot all three sets of coordinates on the same set of axes.
plot3(X,Y,Z)
Specify Equally-Spaced Tick Units and Axis Labels
Create vectors xt
, yt
, and zt
.
t = 0:pi/500:40*pi; xt = (3 + cos(sqrt(32)*t)).*cos(t); yt = sin(sqrt(32) * t); zt = (3 + cos(sqrt(32)*t)).*sin(t);
Plot the data, and use the axis equal
command to space the tick units equally along each axis. Then specify the labels for each axis.
plot3(xt,yt,zt) axis equal xlabel('x(t)') ylabel('y(t)') zlabel('z(t)')
Plot Points as Markers Without Lines
Create vectors t
, xt
, and yt
, and plot the points in those vectors using circular markers.
t = 0:pi/20:10*pi;
xt = sin(t);
yt = cos(t);
plot3(xt,yt,t,'o')
Customize Color and Marker
Create vectors t
, xt
, and yt
, and plot the points in those vectors as a blue line with 10-point circular markers. Use a hexadecimal color code to specify a light blue fill color for the markers.
t = 0:pi/20:10*pi; xt = sin(t); yt = cos(t); plot3(xt,yt,t,'-o','Color','b','MarkerSize',10,... 'MarkerFaceColor','#D9FFFF')
Specify Line Style
Create vector t
. Then use t
to calculate two sets of x and y values.
t = 0:pi/20:10*pi; xt1 = sin(t); yt1 = cos(t); xt2 = sin(2*t); yt2 = cos(2*t);
Plot the two sets of values. Use the default line for the first set, and specify a dashed line for the second set.
plot3(xt1,yt1,t,xt2,yt2,t,'--')
Modify Line After Plotting
Create vectors t
, xt
, and yt
, and plot the data in those vectors. Return the chart line in the output variable p
.
t = linspace(-10,10,1000); xt = exp(-t./10).*sin(5*t); yt = exp(-t./10).*cos(5*t); p = plot3(xt,yt,t);
Change the line width to 3
.
p.LineWidth = 3;
Plot Data from a Table
Since R2022a
A convenient way to plot data from a table is to pass the table to the plot3
function and specify the variables to plot.
Create vectors x
, y
, and t
, and put the vectors in a table. Then display the first three rows of the table.
t = (0:pi/20:10*pi)'; x = sin(t); y = cos(t); tbl = table(x,y,t); head(tbl,3)
x y t _______ _______ _______ 0 1 0 0.15643 0.98769 0.15708 0.30902 0.95106 0.31416
Plot the x
, y
, and t
table variables. Return the Line
object as p
. Notice that the axis labels match the variable names.
p = plot3(tbl,"x","y","t");
To modify aspects of the line, set the LineStyle
, Color
, and Marker
properties on the Line
object. For example, change the line to a red dotted line with circular markers.
p.LineStyle = ":"; p.Color = "red"; p.Marker = "o";
Plot Multiple Table Variables on the x- and y-Axes
Since R2022a
Create a table containing five variables. Then display the first three rows of the table.
t = (0:pi/500:pi)'; x1 = sin(t).*cos(10*t); x2 = sin(t).*cos(12*t); y1 = sin(t).*sin(10*t); y2 = sin(t).*sin(12*t); z = cos(t); tbl = table(x1,x2,y1,y2,z); head(tbl,3)
x1 x2 y1 y2 z _________ _________ __________ __________ _______ 0 0 0 0 1 0.0062707 0.0062653 0.00039452 0.00047329 0.99998 0.012467 0.012423 0.0015749 0.0018877 0.99992
Plot the x1
and x2
variables on the x-axis, the y1
and y2
variables on the y-axis, and the z
variable on the z-axis. Then add a legend. Notice that the legend entries match the variable names.
plot3(tbl,["x1","x2"],["y1","y2"],"z") legend
Specify Target Axes
You can display a tiling of plots using the tiledlayout
and nexttile
functions. Call the tiledlayout
function to create a 1-by-2 tiled chart layout. Call the nexttile
function to create the axes objects ax1
and ax2
. Create separate line plots in the axes by specifying the axes object as the first argument to plot
3.
tiledlayout(1,2) % Left plot ax1 = nexttile; t = 0:pi/20:10*pi; xt1 = sin(t); yt1 = cos(t); plot3(ax1,xt1,yt1,t) title(ax1,'Helix With 5 Turns') % Right plot ax2 = nexttile; t = 0:pi/20:10*pi; xt2 = sin(2*t); yt2 = cos(2*t); plot3(ax2,xt2,yt2,t) title(ax2,'Helix With 10 Turns')
Plot Duration Data with Custom Tick Format
Create x
and y
as vectors of random values between 0
and 1
. Create z
as a vector of random duration values.
x = rand(1,10); y = rand(1,10); z = duration(rand(10,1),randi(60,10,1),randi(60,10,1));
Plot x
, y
, and z
, and specify the format for the z-axis as minutes and seconds. Then add axis labels, and turn on the grid to make it easier to visualize the points within the plot box.
plot3(x,y,z,'o','DurationTickFormat','mm:ss') xlabel('X') ylabel('Y') zlabel('Duration') grid on
Plot Line With Marker at One Data Point
Create vectors xt
, yt
, and zt
. Plot the values, specifying a solid line with circular markers using the LineSpec
argument. Specify the MarkerIndices
property to place one marker at the 200th data point.
t = 0:pi/500:pi; xt(1,:) = sin(t).*cos(10*t); yt(1,:) = sin(t).*sin(10*t); zt = cos(t); plot3(xt,yt,zt,'-o','MarkerIndices',200)

Note
The properties listed here are only a subset. For a complete list, see Line Properties.
Color
— Color
[0 0.4470 0.7410]
(default) | RGB triplet | hexadecimal color code | 'r'
| 'g'
| 'b'
| ...
Color, specified as an RGB triplet, a hexadecimal color code, a color name, or a
short name. The color you specify sets the line color. It also sets the marker edge
color when the MarkerEdgeColor
property is set to
'auto'
.
For a custom color, specify an RGB triplet or a hexadecimal color code.
An RGB triplet is a three-element row vector whose elements specify the intensities of the red, green, and blue components of the color. The intensities must be in the range
[0,1]
, for example,[0.4 0.6 0.7]
.A hexadecimal color code is a string scalar or character vector that starts with a hash symbol (
#
) followed by three or six hexadecimal digits, which can range from0
toF
. The values are not case sensitive. Therefore, the color codes"#FF8800"

Tips
Use
NaN
orInf
to create breaks in the lines. For example, this code plots a line with a break betweenz=2
andz=4
.plot3([1 2 3 4 5],[1 2 3 4 5],[1 2 NaN 4 5])
plot3
uses colors and line styles based on theColorOrder
andLineStyleOrder
properties of the axes.plot3
cycles through the colors with the first line style. Then, it cycles through the colors again with each additional line style.You can change the colors and the line styles after plotting by setting the
ColorOrder
orLineStyleOrder
properties on the axes. You can also call thecolororder
function to change the color order for all the axes in the figure. (since R2019b)

The plot3
function
supports GPU array input with these usage notes and limitations:
This function accepts GPU arrays, but does not run on a GPU.
For more information, see Run MATLAB Functions on a GPU (Parallel Computing Toolbox).
Distributed Arrays
Partition large arrays across the combined memory of your cluster using Parallel Computing Toolbox™.
Usage notes and limitations:
This function operates on distributed arrays, but executes in the client MATLAB.
For more information, see Run MATLAB Functions with Distributed Arrays (Parallel Computing Toolbox).
Version History
Introduced before R2006aR2022b: Plots created with tables preserve special characters in axis and legend labels
When you pass a table and one or more variable names to the plot3
function, the axis and legend labels now display any special characters that are included in the table variable names, such as underscores. Previously, special characters were interpreted as TeX or LaTeX characters.
For example, if you pass a table containing a variable named Sample_Number
to the plot3
function, the underscore appears in the axis and
legend labels. In R2022a and earlier releases, the underscores are interpreted as
subscripts.
Release | Label for Table Variable "Sample_Number" |
---|---|
R2022b |
|
R2022a |
|
To display axis and legend labels with TeX or LaTeX formatting, specify the labels manually.
For example, after plotting, call the xlabel
or
legend
function with the desired label strings.
xlabel("Sample_Number") legend(["Sample_Number" "Another_Legend_Label"])
R2022a: Pass tables directly to plot3
Create plots by passing a table to the plot3
function followed by the variables you want to plot. When you specify your data as a table, the axis labels and the legend (if present) are automatically labeled using the table variable names.
