Re: [Matplotlib-users] cone plots

Unfortunately, I don't think something like cone plots can be easily
done with current matplotlib.

I guess you can define custom projection and such, as in the example below

http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/api/custom_projection_example.html

but this will involve some (maybe a lot) coding + some knowledge of
mpl internals.

With the experimental curvelinear coordinate support in axes_grid
toolkit (and with yet-to-be-committed patch), one can draw very basic
cone plot (see the attached). However, the current support is far from
complete. I'm willing to make it better, but I'm afraid that this may
not happen in a near future (likely not in this year).

Of course, you can try to plot everything  (axes boundary, ticks,
ticklabels etc.) manually if you want, and maybe this is the best way
currently available.
