plotting order in figure

[abieler]

I want to plot 3 data sets on one figure from a jupyter notebook.
Two bar graphs first and then a scatter plot on top of this.

In the final figure the scatter plot data is hidden behind the bars, even though
I add it last. The "y3" label in the legend also appears on the top,
indicating it gets processed first?

w = 0.9
w2 = 0.4

x = 1:3
y1 = [1,2,3]
y2 = [2,2,2]
y3 = [2,3,1]

fig = plt[:figure]()
plt[:bar](x.-(w/2), y1, log=true, width=w, color="#BFBFBF", label="y1")
plt[:bar](x.-(w2/2), y2, log=true, width=w2, color="k", label="y2")
plt[:scatter](x, y3, color="orange", edgecolors="k",s=40, label="y3")
legend()

You can always use the zorder keyword to specify a precise ordering.

Seems like an issue in the underlying matplotlib library, not with PyPlot per se?

(Note, by the way, that figure and bar and scatter are exported by PyPlot, so you can just type figure() and not plt[:figure]() etcetera.)
