I’m trying to plot a 3d surface with a box frame around both sides (see example in the following link)
comparable example:
http://cloud.originlab.com/www/products/images2/3DGraph_ColorSurface.png
I made the axis panes white and disabled the grid which gets me 80% of the way. I don’t see anything obvious for showing additional axis lines to make the rest of the box (if such an option exists).
Any suggestions/hacks are welcome!
Thanks, Andy

If you supply the code you did to get where you got, I have a rough idea how to get what you need. Essentially, you need to set the edgecolor of the panes, I think. I have to dig a bit in the code to see how to do that, though.
Cheers!

Thanks Ben for the tip on edgecolor. I’ve got what I wanted now and since it took some digging and tinkering I figured I’d write it up and share the solution with anyone who may want it:
https://dawes.wordpress.com/2014/06/27/publication-ready-3d-figures-from-matplotlib/
and full test-case script here:
https://github.com/DawesLab/Qfunction/blob/master/TestQfunc.py
This creates two surface plots with contours below them, labels placed tight to the axes, and some other bits that make it work well for publishing in a two-column journal (black & white, color online).
I’m happy to format and post this to the official documentation if that would be helpful.
Best,
Andy
