Re: [Matplotlib-users] Can I update symbol positions and colors in a collection?

Did I miss a method that would do what I want? I have already looked at removing the collection from the axes and replotting, but for some reason my axis limits get reset when I do so. Guys, I helped Eric out with this offline, and obviously set_array is for the colors, but the only solution we could come up with was to directly reset the PolyCollection._offsets member. This seems a little hacky. Is there any reason that there is not an set_offsets() (or something like it)? Any reason why I shouldn't code up a patch?

No, I can't thing of any reason why this attribute should not be publicly settable, so patch away.
