Plots not rendering properly on an implicit plot (python)-CodePudding

I am trying to plot two curves and then mark their intersection with a vertical line from the x-axis to the point of intersection.

Sometimes the line will generate other times it will not unless I show the plot and then append it as well. To see this try option 1 with b = 24, c = 159 then try option 4 where a = 15, c = -19. Below is the code, any help would be great, thanks!

Sometimes it worked if i redered plot3 (the intersection line) before plot2 (one of the curves) but this was not always a successful solution.

PS if it also finds that there are no positive roots it exits the programme and should display a message (line 32), which it does but it also displays an error message saying 'An exception has occurred, use %tb to see the full traceback.' if anyone knows how to fix this that would also be helpful!

CodePudding user response：

Replace the plot3 = plot_implic.... command with the following:

plot3 = plot_implicit(Eq(x, newxroot),(x,0,2*newxroot), (y,0,2*newyroot), line_color='black', show=False, adaptive=False)

Note that I used adaptive=False which should create a constant width line, and I also plotted the vertical line over the same range as the two previous expressions.

Also, I suggest using an

Note the constant-width lines and labels.
