Bug summary
When enlarging 3D plots with ax.set_box_aspect(None, zoom=zoom)
, there is a mismatch between the limits of rendering data and the axis planes. These should be aligned.
Code for reproduction
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
from itertools import product, combinations
fig, ax = plt.subplots(1, 1, subplot_kw={'projection': '3d'})
r = [0, 1]
scale = np.array([1, 1, 2])
# Draw rectangular cuboid with side lengths [1, 1, 2]
for start, end in combinations(np.array(list(product(r, r, r))), 2):
if np.sum(np.abs(start - end)) == r[1] - r[0]:
ax.plot3D(*zip(start*scale, end*scale))
ax.view_init(elev=7, azim=35, roll=45)
ax.set_box_aspect(None, zoom=1.25)
ax.set_proj_type('ortho')
ax.set_xlabel('x')
ax.set_ylabel('y')
ax.set_zlabel('z')
Actual outcome
Expected outcome
I would expect either the corners of the plotted box to be included, or the corners of the axis planes to be cut off. Ideally the first one.
