Trouble implementing the color orange to a function of a segment

Trying to make a snowman for my Engineering class final project and couldn't figure out how to get the color orange for the carrot nose. I used this code:

segment([25 10 25], [25 5 25], 5, true, y)

to make sure that it was the correct segment I wanted but when I tried implemented the hexadecimal code "#FF8800" in for "y" it was saying there was a matrix error or something with there being a formatting error. I tried other ways to implement the color but couldn't find anything that worked.

I don't know of any MATLAB functions called segment() that pertain to drawing. What function are you using and in what context?

FWIW, #FF8800 is [255 136 0]/255 in unit-scale decimal, which is what most MATLAB tools expect when given a color tuple.

Those do not appear to be valid inputs for segment (System Identification) or segment (Statistics and Machine Learning

Hi,

The valid input format for the segment() function and demonstration can be found in the following documentation:

Alternatively, you may try out the fill() function or fill3() function which is used to fill colored patches in 2D and 3D respectively. The usage of these functions and various options available are explained in the following links:

fill3: https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/fill3.html

Hope this helps!
