Hi All,
I was wondering about custom markers in the scatter method, and I
thought to ask here for some suggestions.
Basically, I have 3 variables to show, which are oil, gas and water
production. I would like to define the bubble size by the sum of these
three variables (or something akin), and then I would like to be able
to split the bubble marker in 3 sections (like having a small pie
chart in place of the marker), with each section area proportional to
the value of oil, gas and water production respectively. I know this
might sound not very clear, I attach a small picture of what I mean
(the picture shows the bubble divided into 2 sections, but the purpose
is the same).
I know about custom marker, but I am not so expert with matplotlib to
be able to implement it... could someone please share some suggestion
on how to do this?
Thank you very much.
Andrea.

Hi,
as you already suggested, you have to do a little hand-work, but its not too hard. I attached an example, which you can use as a starting point...

Hey Manuel -- very cool example. I added this example to the svn
trunk (rewritten slightly to conform to recommended import style) as
examples/scatter_piecharts.py
Cool stuff,
