Bug summary
In the example below, I wish to observe a unitary 3D cube in its diagonal axis (1, 1, 1).
azimut and elevation angle should be both 45°, normally.
Why do I need to set elevation = 28° ????
Thanks,
Patrick
Code for reproduction
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
fig, ax = plt.subplots(1, 3, figsize=(15, 5),
subplot_kw=dict(projection="3d",
proj_type='ortho'))
ax[0].voxels(np.ones((1, 1, 1)), facecolors=[0, 0, 0, 0], edgecolors='k')
ax[0].quiver(0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, color='r', linewidth=5)
ax[1].set_title("azim=45°, elev=45°")
ax[1].voxels(np.ones((1, 1, 1)), facecolors=[0, 0, 0, 0], edgecolors='k')
ax[1].view_init(azim=45, elev=45)
ax[1].quiver(0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, color='r', linewidth=5)
ax[2].set_title("azim=45°, elev=28°")
ax[2].voxels(np.ones((1, 1, 1)), facecolors=[0, 0, 0, 0], edgecolors='k')
ax[2].view_init(azim=45, elev=28)
ax[2].quiver(0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, color='r', linewidth=5)
plt.show()Actual outcome
Expected outcome
view_init(azim=45, elev=45) and not view_init(azim=45, elev=28) to have the expected 3D representation
