[Matplotlib-users] [mplot3d] remove background

[Nicolas P. <nic...@gm...>]

Dear all,

I'm trying to get rid of the mplot3d background (in vain, see below),
how can I do this?

Thanks for your help.

Best,

Nicolas

demo:

from mpl_toolkits.mplot3d import axes3d, axis3d
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np

fig = plt.figure()
ax = axes3d.Axes3D(fig)

for axis in ax.w_xaxis, ax.w_yaxis, ax.w_zaxis:
    for elt in axis.get_ticklines() + axis.get_ticklabels():
        elt.set_visible(False)

myAXINFO = {
    'x': {'i': 0, 'tickdir': 1, 'juggled': (1, 0, 2),
          'color': (0, 0, 0, 0, 0)},
    'y': {'i': 1, 'tickdir': 0, 'juggled': (0, 1, 2),
          'color': (0, 0, 0, 0, 0)},
    'z': {'i': 2, 'tickdir': 0, 'juggled': (0, 2, 1),
          'color': (0, 0, 0, 0, 0)},
    }

ax.w_xaxis._AXINFO = myAXINFO
ax.w_yaxis._AXINFO = myAXINFO
ax.w_zaxis._AXINFO = myAXINFO

plt.show()
