I would like to use Axes3D embedded in Wx. This works, but there is no mouse rotation. Clicking and dragging the mouse on the plot does not rotate the 3D axes like it does in the "scatter3d_demo.py". I tried: WX, WXAgg, and TkAgg with similar results. Can this be fixed soon, or can someone point me to where I can try to fix it?
I tested with the latest SVN tree on Linux and Windows.
Thanks,

Below is some sample code adapted from "embedding_in_wx2.py", but with an Axes3D instead of the regular plot:
#!/usr/bin/env python
# adapted from example code "embedding_in_wx2.py"
# Used to guarantee to use at least Wx2.8
import wxversion
wxversion.ensureMinimal('2.8')
import numpy as np
import matplotlib
# uncomment the following to use wx rather than wxagg
#matplotlib.use('WX')
#from matplotlib.backends.backend_wx import FigureCanvasWx as FigureCanvas
# comment out the following to use wx rather than wxagg
matplotlib.use('WXAgg')
from matplotlib.backends.backend_wxagg import FigureCanvasWxAgg as FigureCanvas
from matplotlib.backends.backend_wx import NavigationToolbar2Wx
from matplotlib.figure import Figure

import wx

'CanvasFrame',size=(550,350))
self.SetBackgroundColour(wx.NamedColor("WHITE"))
self.figure = Figure()

xs = np.random.rand(100)
ys = np.random.rand(100)
zs = np.random.rand(100)
self.axes.scatter(xs, ys, zs)
self.canvas = FigureCanvas(self, -1, self.figure)
self.sizer = wx.BoxSizer(wx.VERTICAL)
self.sizer.Add(self.canvas, 1, wx.LEFT | wx.TOP | wx.GROW)
self.SetSizer(self.sizer)
self.Fit()
self.add_toolbar() # comment this out for no toolbar
def add_toolbar(self):
self.toolbar = NavigationToolbar2Wx(self.canvas)
self.toolbar.Realize()
if wx.Platform == '__WXMAC__':
# Mac platform (OSX 10.3, MacPython) does not seem to cope with
# having a toolbar in a sizer. This work-around gets the buttons
# back, but at the expense of having the toolbar at the top
self.SetToolBar(self.toolbar)
else:
# On Windows platform, default window size is incorrect, so set
# toolbar width to figure width.
tw, th = self.toolbar.GetSizeTuple()
fw, fh = self.canvas.GetSizeTuple()
# By adding toolbar in sizer, we are able to put it at the bottom
# of the frame - so appearance is closer to GTK version.
# As noted above, doesn't work for Mac.
self.toolbar.SetSize(wx.Size(fw, th))
self.sizer.Add(self.toolbar, 0, wx.LEFT | wx.EXPAND)
