Hello
I 've made some test so as to display a rectangle in a 3d view by using matplotlib methods.
I get examples from address http://nullege.com/codes/show/src%40m%40a%40matplotlib-HEAD%40matplotlib%40lib%40mpl_toolkits%40mplot3d%40axes3d.py/881/art3d.Line3DCollection/python
import warnings
from matplotlib.axes import Axes, rcParams
from matplotlib import cbook
from matplotlib.transforms import Bbox
from matplotlib import collections
import numpy as np
from matplotlib.colors import Normalize, colorConverter, LightSource
import art3d
import proj3d
import axis3d
then I remark that art3d is not included in matplotlib module, but I do not find any way to download art3d from the net. And why "import art3d" rather than "import mpl_toolkits.mplot3d.art3d" ?
Is anybody is aware about this topic.
Thanks a lot.
Since I happen to be the de facto 3d guy around here, I will respond. I think your “example” is actually a bit of test code within the mplot3d module. Because the code is within the same directory as the other files, that code can simply import art3d without specifying the module it resides in.
I should also warn you that it seems like you want to use mplot3d for general 3d plotting. Mplot3d is not suitable for this because there are many layering artifacts that can occur. What are you planning to plot?
