Hi, I need to do some simple 3D plots, so I tried the two Cookbook recipes (xplt, mplot3d) and failed: * xplt: does not work when using a custom installation directory such as python setup.py install --root=/home/share/software apparently the gistdata directory path is wrong: gist.error: failed to create drawing -- Gist work.gs style sheet missing * mplot3d: does not work with my version of matplotlib (0.80). I have made the changes mentioned in the Cookbook to no avail. (Axes.__init__() args apparently changed, as well as some other matplotlib object attributes) Any ideas? mplot3d looks great, I would really like to use it! thanks, r.
I have had some success with Gnuplot.py and Mayavi, but both are probably more work than matplotlib's 3D surface stuff (because they have a lot more capability). If you want to pursue matplotlib, I would ask this question over there (I think somebody asked something very similar last week - so look for that thread).

Have a try with tvtk/MayaVi2, see http://www.scipy.org/Cookbook/MayaVi/ for some examples. If anythin is not clear, please let me know - it is very fresh and work in progress. Best, Arnd
http://pivy.tammura.at/ & http://pyqwt.sourceforge.net/ might be of your interest.
Thanks for all your suggestions! r.

I'd suggest just updating your Matplotlib library to version 0.99, or trying out Mayavi2. -- Pauli Virtanen
or if u can't get it working gnuplot might be a stop gap for ur 3d plotting? Martin On Sep 5, 2:53 pm, Pauli Virtanen <p...@iki.fi> wrote:
