[Matplotlib-users] 3d plots: set view angle (azimuth and elevation)

Thanks for a great library and excellent documentation. I'm using mpl_toolkits.mplot3d.Axes3D (version 0.99.0) to generate a 3D scatter plot and the web examples have been very useful so far. But I have these questions to which I can't find answers in the mailing lists or the website: a) can you

Ok, I'll go for Mayavi. I am reasonably impressed by the demos. I haven't been to far into the documentation and I hop I won't regret my choice. But it looks great so far. Thanks for your help !! -Etienne Etienne Gaudrain wrote: > Hello list ! > > This is probably a recurrent topic, or even

Waouuuh ! These screenshots look awsome ! A shame this package is not in my Ubuntu repository. I'm a bit lazy, and I want a long-term solution, which supposes auto-update... -Etienne Andy Buckley wrote: > > You might also be interested in Nicholas Rougier's SciGL project, which > (IIRC) was st

Re: [Matplotlib-users] 3D plots

Thanks Barry. I still don't know whether I want to use Gnuplot.py or Mayavi. Gnuplot is built on a very stable base, so I would be sure to have few surprises with future developments. But maybe it is too old and will not pass the Python3k step... I gave a look to Mayavi, and the start is prett

Re: [Matplotlib-users] 3D plots

Thanks for all these pointers! I am well aware and respectful of the open source philosophy, and please do not see a criticism toward the work of the developers in my e-mail... just a lost user seeking advice, wanting to understand what happened to catch the train I apparently missed during the

Re: [Matplotlib-users] 3D plots

Thanks a lot for the link, and for the suggestions! I will probably give a go to Mayavi2, but given how heavy it seems to be (compared to matplotlib) it probably requires some custom wrapping... which means again a lot time investment... thanks for the tips anyway! Cheers, -Etienne Gary Ruben

Hi Etienne, Sorry to hear about your disappointment. You can read about the attempt to resurrect the 3D plotting capabilities here: Unfortunately, this doesn't help you right now. Depending on the type of 3D pl

Hello list ! This is probably a recurrent topic, or even more probably HAVE been a recurrent topic... So sorry, sorry, sorry... I wanted to search the archives but Sourceforge is very slow today (...). Anyway, here is my question: Is it right that Matplotlib can no longer plot 3D graphes? The
