Hi all,
Does anyone know how I can convert my matplotlib 3D images into U3D files ?
I found some hints for Matlab users ...
Any pointer would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Nils,
I don’t believe that this is currently possible in mplot3d. The way the “.savefig()” function works is by getting all of the object data down to one of the backends, which operate on 2D data only. As a matter of fact, a lot of code in mplot3d is spent on producing 2D projections of 3D data.
While such a feature would be neat (and maybe it could be shoehorned into the pdf writer?) I would not expect it anytime soon. I would greatly encourage you to file a feature request and include those links as well.

Thanks for the idea!
