The colors may come from the colormap, but how do they get assigned to areas of the plot itself? The most obvious way to do it is to index by z, so areas with low z are shown with a cool color, and areas with high z are shown with a hot color (assuming you are using a cold-hot colormap). As far as I can tell though, this is not the system currently used, nor is there any coherent system used. - Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?

[Matplotlib-users] 3d Plotting
I understand that 3D plotting is not fully working yet, but I have a question that might be answerable anyway. I can get a nice looking 3D plot of my data using surf = ax3d.plot_surface(x, y, z) but I can't control the colors used in the plot. I can do a surf.set_array(ColorArray) and the contents of the array (ColorArray) will be translated into colors on the plot somehow, but the translation appears to be arbitrary. Does anyone know how the translation is done, so that I can assign a certain color to a certain part of the plot? Thanks, Rich. - Using Tomcat but need to do more?
