mpl_toolkits.mplot3d.axes3d.Axes3D.tricontour

Axes3D.tricontour(*args, extend3d=False, stride=5, zdir='z', offset=None, data=None, **kwargs)[source]

Create a 3D contour plot.

Note

This method currently produces incorrect output due to a longstanding bug in 3D PolyCollection rendering.

Parameters:

X, Y, Zarray-like

Input data. See Axes.tricontour for supported data shapes.

extend3dbool, default: False

Whether to extend contour in 3D.

strideint, default: 5

Step size for extending contour.

zdir{'x', 'y', 'z'}, default: 'z'

The direction to use.

offsetfloat, optional

If specified, plot a projection of the contour lines at this position in a plane normal to zdir.

dataindexable object, optional

If given, all parameters also accept a string s, which is interpreted as data[s] (unless this raises an exception).

*args, **kwargs

Other arguments are forwarded to matplotlib.axes.Axes.tricontour.

Returns:

matplotlib.tri._tricontour.TriContourSet
