Re: [Matplotlib-users] How to 'rotate' a 3D plot?

There is an uncommented, and therefore undocumented function:

axes3d.view_init(elev, azim)

that you can use to rotate the axes.  If you have not already, I suggest you use the current SVN version of MPL instead of the 0.99.1 version.  Mplot3d has some more features in the trunk, but it is still rough around the edges.

Subject: [Matplotlib-users] How to 'rotate' a 3D plot?

Hi,

I have successfully created a 3D scatter plot with mplot3d, but how can I rotate the plot around e.g. the z-axis?

I do not want to use the user interface but I would like to use a command to do that. But I could not find good documentation anywhere and the commands attributed to the Axes3D also do not show anything obvious.

Thanks
  Alex
