Just trying to get familiar with mplot3d’s functions, and I’ve run into a problem with plot_wireframe that I’m having problems running down (or duplicating, for that matter). I’m trying to generate plots of some wavelet functions, so I need to plot values against time and scale. I’ve generated three numpy arrays: X (time), Y (scale) (generated these using meshgrid), and Z (values, a rather sparse matrix). I verified that all of these are the same shape (7x100) by fetching the ‘shape’ attribute from X,Y,Z. However, when I call plot_wireframe(), I get this error:
Exception in Tkinter callback

ValueError: setting an array element with a sequence.
Any suggestions as to what the problem might be? As I said, I’m having problems duplicating it in “toy” programs.
Thanks in advance.
