Please consider the following code, which is from here:
from matplotlib import pyplot
from mpl_toolkits.mplot3d import Axes3D
from numpy.random import rand
from pylab import figure
m=rand(3,3) # m is an array of (x,y,z) coordinate triplets
fig = figure()
ax = Axes3D(fig)
for i in range(len(m)): #plot each point + it's index as text above
ax.scatter(m[i,0],m[i,1],m[i,2],color='b')
ax.text(m[i,0],m[i,1],m[i,2], '%s' % (str(i)), size=20, zorder=1,
color='k')
ax.set_xlabel('x')
ax.set_ylabel('y')
ax.set_zlabel('z')
pyplot.show()
It creates the following graph:
How can I add a highlighted area in a corner of the plot, for example where x > .7, y > .5, and z <.1? The desired graph should look like this, but with the highlighted area being 3D as well:
What I tried is:
surf = ax.plot_surface(np.array([.7, .75]), np.array([.5, .65]), np.array([[0], [.1]]), rstride=1, cstride=1, facecolors='y', linewidth=0, antialiased=False, shade=False)
While this does the highlighting, it does not create the 3D highlighted region I am looking for.
