Nonetheless, these formats may use some lower level library such as HDF5, or they may use raw ASCII. That is, the code that writes these files is typically part of the application itself and is not a stand-alone product of its own.

These are formats that were originally designed primarily for and are part of some specific application code.

Can edit axes ticks spacing (with major ticks at the very least).

Allows for customizing fonts in axes, labels, titles, etc.

volume rendering example that fails to run, I tried editing many lines of code to make it work without luck) and others seem to agree that the documentation is lacking.īy decent scientific plotting library I mean the following: Is there any decent and easy to use scientific 3D plotting library in Python? I have tried learning vtk but the website examples seem to be obsolete (e.g. Also, those very basic features that are supported do not even work properly to date (e.g. However, when it comes to communicate these plots in publications, very basic plot customizations are not available such as major and minor ticks in the axes.

Mayavi seemed to offer pretty standard routines for scientific 3d plotting. I would like to do so in Python since I simulate many datasets in this language and I would like to be able to visualize them quickly as I perform sensitivities in my simulation parameters. Mlab.title('Can not change font size for this title') I need to plot a scalar field that is structured in a 3D grid as the one that follows: import numpy as np
