Challenges in plotting IPF and KAM maps

[Sogo5030]

I am new to MTEX and trying to get my IPF and KAM maps but my IPF map gives a blank figure.

I don't know what I am doing wrong. can someone give me an idea?

else

Hi,

what does ebsd('f') return.

If there is some data in this object, can you try ?

ipfkey = ipfHSVKey(ebsd('f'));
plot(ebsd('f'), ipfkey.orientation2color(ebsd('f').orientations))

Cheers,

Rüdiger

Thank you for your kind response. I tried it but my figure popped up with no distribution.

Here is what I did:

%% Import Script for EBSD Data
%
% This script was automatically created by the import wizard. You should
% run the whoole script or parts of it in order to import your data. There
% is no problem in making any changes to this script.

%% Specify Crystal and Specimen Symmetries

% crystal symmetry
CS = {...

crystalSymmetry('m-3m', [2.9 2.9 2.9], 'mineral', 'Ferrite, bcc (New)', 'color', [0.53 0.81 0.98])};

% plotting convention
setMTEXpref('xAxisDirection','north');
setMTEXpref('zAxisDirection','outOfPlane');

%% Specify File Names

% path to files
pname = 'C:\Users\Desktop\Code\EBSD\MAp 43';

% which files to be imported
fname = [pname '

map4.ctf'];

%% Import the Data

% create an EBSD variable containing the data
ebsd = EBSD.load(fname,CS,'interface','ctf',...
'convertEuler2SpatialReferenceFrame');

%% rotate the orientation data but not the spatial data

rot=rotation('Euler', 90degree, 0degree, 0*degree);
ebsd=rotate(ebsd,rot,'keepXY'); % 'keepXY' allows you to apply a rotation to your orientation data without changing the spatial data

RD = vector3d.X;
TD = vector3d.Y;
ND = vector3d.Z;

ipfKey = ipfTSLKey(ebsd('Ferrite, bcc (New)'));
figure(1);
ipfKey.inversePoleFigureDirection = xvector;
oricolors = ipfKey.orientation2color(ebsd('Ferrite, bcc (New)').orientations);
plot(ebsd('Ferrite, bcc (New)'),oriColors,'figSize','small')
hold on
% plot(grains.boundary,'linewidth',1)
title('IPF X')
hold off

% Plot IPF map
%plot(ebsd, colors);
%colorbar;
%title('IPF-Z Map');
