Hi,

  I have a data set that is composed of x,y,z coordinates of the center of
cells and counts of objects in each contained in cell. I am using the
following code to do a scatter plot of the counts per cell.


ax = fig.add_subplot(111, projection='3d')
ax.scatter(Xa, Ya, Za, zdir='z', s=C, c='b')
ax.set_xlabel('X Label')
ax.set_ylabel('Y Label')
ax.set_zlabel('Z Label')
plt.show()

Where Xa, Ya, Za, are arrays containing the cell centers, and C is an array
of counts per cell.  Below is a plot I did where the blue circles represent
the  "size in points^2. It is a scalar or an array of the same length as x
and y."(Quote from docs).  What I would like to do is have  the plot show
the actual number of counts as points in the plot. Is such a thing possible?
Thanks

Best,
Khary

Hey guys,

thanks for the quick replies. You are right, the problem appears to be
related to my pdf viewer (okular). More concretely, pdf viewers based
on the poppler library (e.g. xpdf, qpdfview) show the same problem in
ubuntu 12.04. Everything works fine with evince or acroread.

Thanks,
Benjamin

I think I'm experiencing a bug.

Here is a minimum example:

import matplotlib.patches as mpatches
path = mpatches.Rectangle((0,0),width=1,height=1).get_path()
print path.contains_point(point=(.5,.5))

it raises an IndexError: Unexpected SeqBase<T> length.

I think this is a problem in the contains_point method which calls a C
function point_in_path inside of matplotlib._path

Thanks!
