Is it possible to generate [static] plots that are shown by spyder ? #377

davidcastells commented 3 years ago

I would like to use ipyvolume plots to render some 3d data. I use the spyder IDE, which shows the plots in some specific pane. But ipyvolume plots do no appear there (I guess because they are based on an interactive widget).

Is there any way to use ipyvolume to render 3D data into an image and use the classic matplotlib package to display it? (so that spyder would show it) ?

Thanks

Interesting question. This might be possible using the Qt webkit browser, but that would be quite a challenge :) See also https://github.com/maartenbreddels/ipyvolume/issues/204#issuecomment-443747318
