matplotlib pcolor not working when used as "2D plot in 3D"
<p>I am trying to add a pcolor plot to the example code given here <a href="http://matplotlib.org/examples/mplot3d/2dcollections3d_demo.html" rel="nofollow">http://matplotlib.org/examples/mplot3d/2dcollections3d_demo.html</a></p>

<pre><code>from mpl_toolkits.mplot3d import Axes3D
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.gca(projection='3d')

x = np.linspace(0, 1, 100)
y = np.sin(x * 2 * np.pi) / 2 + 0.5
ax.plot(x, y, zs=0, zdir='z', label='zs=0, zdir=z')

colors = ('r', 'g', 'b', 'k')
for c in colors:
    x = np.random.sample(20)
    y = np.random.sample(20)
    ax.scatter(x, y, 0, zdir='y', c=c)

xc = np.linspace(0, 1, 100)
yc = np.linspace(0, 1, 100)
fc = np.random.random((len(xc),len(yc)))
ax.pcolor(xc,yc,fc, zdir = 'x')

ax.legend()
ax.set_xlim3d(0, 1)
ax.set_ylim3d(0, 1)
ax.set_zlim3d(0, 1)

plt.show()

<p>Just few new lines when compared to the original script. Unfortunately, it doesn't end well and I really don't understand why.</p>

<p>Thank you all for the support.</p>
