Well, there is the new 3D quiver feature:
http://matplotlib.org/examples/mplot3d/quiver3d_demo.html. Not quite
streamlines, but it might do in a pinch.
Another approach:
There is the 2d streamplot() function that returns a specialized object.
>From the docstring:
```
Returns:
*stream_container* : StreamplotSet
Container object with attributes
- lines: `matplotlib.collections.LineCollection` of
streamlines
- arrows: collection of `matplotlib.patches.FancyArrowPatch`
objects representing arrows half-way along stream
lines.
```
You might be able to get away with using the "lines" object and feeding it
through art3d.line_collection_2d_to_3d(), kind of like how it is done for
pathpatch objects here:
http://matplotlib.org/examples/mplot3d/pathpatch3d_demo.html. You might
also be able to pass the individual objects in the "arrows" list through
art3d.patch_2d_to_3d(), but I have no clue if that would actually work or
not.
I hope that helps!
