I am using jupyter ipython notebook to generate 3d plots using matplotlib. I can get zoom and and pan options with the %matplotlib notebook
command. I would like to download the plots with a specific camera angle that I choose with the pan/rotate option. Using savefig
saves the default camera angle of the plot. How can I do this?

1`savefig` should save the figure in its currently active state. Of course `savefig` should be called only once the zooming and panning is finished. If that is not the case for you, you might want to show a [mcve] of the issue. – ImportanceOfBeingErnest Jun 17 '19 at 12:48

If you take the mouse to the up right-hand side of the plot, some options show up. If you press the first one (with the shape of a camera), it will save your plot with your desired angle to the download folder of your laptop.
