Axes3D.add_collection3d(col, zs=0, zdir='z', autolim=True, *, axlim_clip=False)[source]

Add a 3D collection object to the plot.

2D collection types are converted to a 3D version by modifying the object and adding z coordinate information, zs and zdir.

Supported 2D collection types are:

• PolyCollection
• LineCollection
• PatchCollection (currently not supporting autolim)

Parameters:
