Re: [Matplotlib-users] Outputting to eps with Mplot3d one of the walls loses its lines.
Yes, I see that now. I hadn't noticed that the face color for the bottom of the 3d plot is off as well. Thanks for the update and keep me posted.

Version control is standard for application code, but databases havent caught up. So what steps can you take to put your SQL databases under version control? Why should you start doing it?

Diving into the eps output, I can tell that the grid lines are being output to the file, but it seems like the color of the gridline matches that particular wall's color, which is why we can't see it. The odd thing is that the line colors are correct, but for some reason, the face colors are wrong for eps. Looking at the output for pdf and png, the walls are not shaded nearly as much as it is in eps. There is probably something messed up in our PS backend that is misinterpreting the grayscale color information it is getting. Will have to dive in some more... Cheers!

[Matplotlib-users] Outputting to eps with Mplot3d one of the walls loses its lines.
I have version 1.2.x of matplotlib. The minimal example shows the case below. The back wall will lose its lines. Is there a reason for this? Is there a transparent layer there so eps has to put it as a solid wall? If so, is there a way to remove that transparent layer? Pdf and the other backends have no problem exporting correctly. import matplotlib.pyplot as plt from mpl_toolkits.mplot3d import Axes3D fig = plt.figure() ax = fig.add_subplot(111, projection='3d') plt.savefig('testing.eps') -- See everything from the browser to the database with AppDynamics Get end-to-end visibility with application monitoring from AppDynamics Isolate bottlenecks and diagnose root cause in seconds.
