The docs state the following for
mplot3d
as preferred usage:Because Axes3D is only registered as a projection in
mpl_toolkits.mplot3d.axes3d
one has to import from there even though the module is otherwise integrated rather seamlessly. It feels a bit odd to have an unused import as the preferred usage.How about registering the projection earlier, within matplotlib, thus obviating this import? As far as I can see mplot3d is always there when matplotlib is installed (I put an
except ImportError
anyway to make double sure to not break anything). Well.. just cosmetics, I guess, so feel free to just close.If this gets a thumbs up, I'll also change the docs accordingly.
