Perfect — yes, we can definitely make a button that toggles to and from this specific view angle automatically (so you can jump to it whenever you like).

From your screenshot, it looks like the 3D plot was rotated roughly:
* Elevation: around 100–110°
* Azimuth: around -45° to -60°

Let’s add a “Special View” button (next to your others) that jumps to that angle, and toggles back to your previous view when clicked again.

Here’s the drop-in patch — just add these new lines to your latest script (they’re fully Windows-safe):

===== <syntaxhighlight lang="python">self.ax_special = plt.axes([0.10, 0.02, 0.13, 0.05]) =====
self.btn_special = Button(self.ax_special, "Special View")
self.btn_special.on_clicked(self.toggle_special_view)

</syntaxhighlight>

(Make sure this comes '''before''' <code>self.btn_reset.on_clicked(...)</code>, etc., or just after them — order doesn’t matter much.)

===== <syntaxhighlight lang="python">def toggle_special_view(self, event=None): =====
    """Toggle a dramatic oblique view seen in the screenshot"""
    # Save the current view if not already saved
    if not hasattr(self, "_saved_view"):
        self._saved_view = (self.elev, self.azim)

    # Check if currently in special view
    if getattr(self, "_special_active", False):
        # Return to saved view
        self.elev, self.azim = self._saved_view
        self._special_active = False
    else:
        # Activate special tilted view (adjust if needed)
        self.elev = 105   # tilt downward strongly
        self.azim = -55   # rotate sideways
        self._special_active = True

    self.setup_plot()

</syntaxhighlight>

✅ What it does:
* Adds a “Special View” button.
* Clicking it switches to the tilted perspective like your image.
* Clicking again returns you to your previous camera angle.

Would you like me to make this “special view” animate (smooth rotation from the current camera to the special one and back)?
That would make the transition feel cinematic.
