|
| Generating 3D plots using the mplot3d toolkit. |

|
|
| 3D Axes (of class `.Axes3D`) are created by passing the ``projection="3d"`` |
| keyword argument to `.Figure.add_subplot`:: |
| |
| import matplotlib.pyplot as plt |
| fig = plt.figure() |
| ax = fig.add_subplot(projection='3d') |
|
|
| Multiple 3D subplots can be added on the same figure, as for 2D subplots. |

|
| .. versionchanged:: 3.2.0 |
| Prior to Matplotlib 3.2.0, it was necessary to explicitly import the |
| :mod:`mpl_toolkits.mplot3d` module to make the '3d' projection to |
| `.Figure.add_subplot`. |
|
|
