[Matplotlib-users] Can I update symbol positions and colors in a collection?

[Eric B. <eri...@gm...>]

I have scatterplots on several axes that are dynamically updated, and
thus I need to keep track of each of the PolyCollection artists that
represent the scattered data. I would like to keep the same
PolyCollection object but update the positions, colors, etc. of the
symbols, possibly changing their total number, something along the
lines of Line.set_data.

Did I miss a method that would do what I want?

I have already looked at removing the collection from the axes and
replotting, but for some reason my axis limits get reset when I do so.

Thanks,
Eric
