The plot module provides an easy way to create high quality contourplots of 2D or 3D mesh data. It is heavily based on matplotlib and pyvista.

Features

• plotting of point or cell data

• plotting multiple meshes in a subplot grid

• projections of arbitrarily oriented 2D meshes

• isometric views of 3D meshes

• show region/material boundaries (optionally with labels)

• show element boundaries

• streamlines of vector data

• sensible default colormaps

• nicely formatted colorbars

Getting started

• Examples demonstrating the plotting utilitites can be found at: Plotting the data.
