Hello,
Could anyone tell me how to use plot3D in a subplot?
I looked at the examples at
http://www.scipy.org/Cookbook/Matplotlib/mplot3D
But seems to me that matplotlib.axes3d.Axes3D can
be only constructed from a Figure instance but
not from a Subplot instance.
Thanks,
Bing
You should be able to set the rect keyword argument of the Axes3D constructor:
fig=p.figure()
ax = pylab.Axes3D(fig, rect=[0.2, 0.6, 0.7, 0.3])
where rect is [left, bottom, width, height] in fractions of the figure 0..1
A subplot is just an axes with a rect set so that it lives on a regular grid.
Note though that the 3D stuff is experimental, slow, somewhat buggy
and not supported, so we won't be able to help much with real
problems.

Hi John,
Thanks for the hint. I am able to pass the rect returned by Subplot.get_position().
