MATLAB: How to use RGB with Plot3

Question

I am simply trying to plot a point using Plot3 with a specific RGB color

plot3(1,2,3, 'Color',[255 153 51],'x')

This should give me an orange cross

After running this line, I get "Error using plot3, Not enough input arguments"

I've read the documentations and saw how other people implemented this, and I couldn't figure out where I went wrong. Help!

Answer 1

Your color is messed up - you need to divide by 255 to get the color values in the range of 0-1. This works fine:

plot3(1, 2, 3, 'x', 'Color', [255, 153, 51] / 255, 'MarkerSize', 30, 'LineWidth', 3);
grid on;
