Create a collection of flat 3D paths with its normal vector pointed in *zdir* direction, and located at *zs* on the *zdir* axis. 'zs' can be a scalar or an array-like of the same length as the number of paths in the collection. Constructor arguments are the

        Constructor arguments are the same as for

        keywords *zs=0* and *zdir='z'* are available.

        Also, the keyword argument *depthshade* is available to
        indicate whether or not to shade the patches in order to
        give the appearance of depth (default is *True*).
        This is typically desired in scatter plots.

        *depthshade_minalpha* sets the minimum alpha value applied by
        depth-shading.
