Forgive me if this is an old question, but I just loaded mplot3d and was attempting to work through a couple of the examples on the Matplotlib website. The problem is that whenever I try to make a call to a function that requires an argument of projection=’3d’ (such as: ax = fig.add_subplot(111, projection=‘3d’)), Python gives me the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “<pyshell#12>”, line 1, in
ax = fig.add_subplot(111, projection=‘3d’)
File “C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\matplotlib\figure.py”, line 677, in add_subplot
projection_class = get_projection_class(projection)
File “C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\matplotlib\projections_init_.py”, line 61, in get_projection_class
raise ValueError(“Unknown projection ‘%s’” % projection)
ValueError: Unknown projection ‘3d’
Running help on fig.add_subplot does not show ‘3d’ as a valid projection type for this function.
What’s going on, and how do I fix it?
I’m running Python 2.6.6 on Windows 7.
Thanks in advance.
