'Poly3DCollection' object has no attribute '_facecolors2d'

Greetings,

before I submit an issue I usually try to confirm on the mailing list that the issue I’m experiencing is not just on my system.

At the moment, I’ve tested this only on my personal laptop, but in virtual environments.

One venv has mpl version 1.3.1, the other has just been installed (with only numpy, matplotlib and ipython) and thus has mpl version 1.4.2.

In both environments the following script fails:

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.tri as mtri
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from mpl_toolkits.mplot3d import Axes3D

y,x = np.ogrid[1:10:100j, 1:10:100j]
z = x**2-x*y
z2 = np.cos(x)**3 - np.sin(y)**2
fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(111, projection=‘3d’)
r = ax.plot_surface(x,y,z2, cmap=‘hot’)
r.get_facecolors()

It fails on the last line with the following traceback:

···

AttributeError Traceback (most recent call last)
in ()
----> 1 r.get_facecolors()

/home/oliver/.virtualenvs/mpl/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mpl_toolkits/mplot3d/art3d.pyc in get_facecolors(self)
634
635 def get_facecolors(self):
–> 636 return self._facecolors2d
637 get_facecolor = get_facecolors
638

AttributeError: ‘Poly3DCollection’ object has no attribute ‘_facecolors2d’

Can anyone confirm on their system that this is a bug?

I have the same error appearing for get_facecolor() (without the s) by the way.

Regards,

Oliver

Yup, that is a real bug… self._facecolors2d doesn’t get set until the first draw. It really shouldn’t be accessing _facecolors2d because the elements can change order depending on the rotation of the display. Could you file the bug report, please?

Thanks!
