tikz-3dplot – Co­or­di­nate trans­for­ma­tion styles for 3d plot­ting in TikZ

The pack­age pro­vides straight­for­ward ways to de­fine three-di­men­sional co­or­di­nate frames through which to plot in TikZ. The user can spec­ify the ori­en­ta­tion of the main co­or­di­nate frame, and use stan­dard TikZ com­mands and co­or­di­nates to ren­der their tikz­fig­ure. A sec­ondary co­or­di­nate frame is pro­vided to al­low ro­ta­tions and trans­la­tions with re­spect to the main co­or­di­nate frame. In ad­di­tion, the pack­age can also han­dle plot­ting user-spec­i­fied func­tions in spher­i­cal po­lar co­or­di­nates, where both the ra­dius and fill color can be ex­pressed as para­met­ric func­tions of po­lar an­gles.
