3D scatterplot histogram + error ellipses

Hi all,

I’m trying to display the histograms of lists of 2D vectors together with their error ellipses in a 3D plot.
Plotting the histograms as 3D scatterplots is easy using matplotlib.axes3d.Axes3D( ).scatter3D( x, y, h ),
but how do I draw the error ellipse in the ( x, y ) plane. I know how to create a matplotlib.patches.Ellipse
object, but I’m pretty clueless on how to integrate it into the figure. Any help?
