Point
Point
[
coords
]
is a graphics primitive that represents a point.
Point
[{
coords
1
,
coords
2
,
...
}]
represents a collection of points.
MORE INFORMATION
The coordinates can be given either in the ordinary form
{
x
,
y
}
or
{
x
,
y
,
z
}
or in scaled form
Scaled
[{
x
,
y
}]
or
Scaled
[{
x
,
y
,
z
}]
.

Offset
can be used to specify coordinates in two dimensions.
»
Points are rendered if possible as circular regions. Their diameters can be specified using the graphics directive
PointSize
.
Point diameters are not accounted for in hidden surface elimination for three-dimensional graphics.
Shading and coloring of points can be specified using
CMYKColor
,
GrayLevel
,
Hue
,
Opacity
or
RGBColor
.
Individual coordinates and lists of coordinates in points can be
Dynamic
