     - if you don't see a part of what you have plotted, maybe it's hidden behind other elements!

 +      * things should work //as expected// if //zorder// is not explicitly specified
 +      * Use the ''zorder=NN'' parameter when creating objects. ''NN'' is an integer where 0 is the lowest value (the farthest from the eye), and objects are plotted above objects with a lower //zorder// value
 +      * Use ''matplotlib_object.set_order(NN)'' to change the order after an object has been created
