I execute the same code in Mathematica 9 and MAthematica 10, and have this different results.

Expr1 = -0.7 alfa + 2;
Expr2 = 1.2 alfa + 1.3;

p2 = Plot[{Expr1, Expr2}, {alfa, 0, 1}, 
  BaseStyle -> AbsoluteThickness[9], 
  PlotLegends -> 
   LineLegend["Expressions", BaseStyle -> AbsoluteThickness[4]], 
  PlotRange -> {Automatic, {-5, 10}}, AspectRatio -> 1.5]
Solve[Expr1 == Expr2, alfa]

What options I have use to obtaining in Mathematica10 the same results as en Math9.0

Thickness, and colors series.

This issue arises due to the introduction of PlotTheme in Mma v10.
You can disable this behaviour by using PlotTheme -> None, e.g.

Plot[{x^2 + x, x^2}, {x, -1, 1}, BaseStyle -> AbsoluteThickness[4], PlotTheme -> None]

If you have multiple plots in your notebook, than you can execute

$PlotTheme=None;

somewhere before the plots to get the old behaviour for all plots.


To get a "Detailed" plot with the "Classic" colors and thicker lines:

Plot[{x^2+x,x^2},{x,-1,1},PlotStyle->AbsoluteThickness[4],PlotTheme->{"Detailed","Classic"}]

  • $\begingroup$ +1 Well, gee, you'd think specific options would override Automatic ones (default $PlotTheme is Automatic). $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ @MichaelE2 the hole PlotTheme concept seems to be not yet fully integrated. E.g., Some examples in the documentation are broken now and some easy modifications now even don't work after setting PlotTheme -> None BoxWhiskerChart. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ I like the "Detailed" option but... how could I obtain DETAILED with the lines more thickness?, and with the old colors?. CODE p2 = Plot[{Expr1, Expr2}, {p, 0, 1}, BaseStyle -> AbsoluteThickness[4], PlotTheme -> Detailed] $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ @MikaIke try Plot[{Expr1, Expr2}, {p, 0, 1}, PlotStyle -> AbsoluteThickness[4], PlotTheme -> {"Classic", "Detailed"}] $\endgroup$

Rather than turning off the Theme capability you could work with it:

Plot[{x^2 + x, x^2}, {x, -1, 1}, PlotTheme -> "ThickLines"]

enter image description here

You can combine Themes allowing additional control. To learn how to create new Themes such as "Thick5" see the Advanced section of my answer to:

Example of use:

Plot[{x^2 + x, x^2}, {x, -1, 1}, PlotTheme -> {"Detailed", "Thick5"}]
