Hi, I would like to set a new colormap for my trisurf from the cmocean collection. Does anyone know how to set one of them? Thank you.

It should be as easy as calling something like
cmap = cmocean('thermal'); % or 'deep', or whichever colormap from the collection you want.
cmocean maps are great, but may not be appreciated by reviewers

what is the error it's giving you? are you sure that the cmocean.m is on your path? you also have to set the figure colormap to the one defined by the cmap command. E.g:
cmap = cmocean('thermal');
pcolor( randn(10) );
colorbar;
colormap(cmap);
