There is an uncommented, and therefore undocumented function: axes3d.view_init(elev, azim)
that you can use to rotate the axes. If you have not already, I suggest you use the current SVN version of MPL instead of the 0.99.1 version. Mplot3d has some more features in the trunk, but it is still rough around the edges. -Ben -----Original Message----- From: Alexander Dietz [mailto:alexanderdie...@googlemail.com] Sent: Tuesday, March 16, 2010 1:25 PM To: Matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Matplotlib-users] How to 'rotate' a 3D plot? Hi, I have successfully created a 3D scatter plot with mplot3d, but how can I rotate the plot around e.g. the z-axis? I do not want to use the user interface but I would like to use a command to do that. But I could not find good documentation anywhere and the commands attributed to the Axes3D also do not show anything obvious.
