However, the current [imshow](https://matplotlib.org/stable/plot_types/arrays/imshow.html#imshow-z) function only supports RBG(A) or 2D scalar data.\r\n\r\n### Proposed solution\r\n\r\nThe code example [here](https://matplotlib.org/stable/gallery/event_handling/image_slices_viewer.html#image-slices-viewer) shows how to display multiple slice images, but there is a lot of code to write, which is not convenient. Maybe one solution is to provide a wrap function (i.e. `imshow_3d` or `slice_viewer`) that implements the example code somehow?","author":{"url":"https://github.com/ustcfdm","@type":"Person","name":"ustcfdm"},"datePublished":"2022-11-04T07:14:04.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":11},"url":"https://github.com/24360/matplotlib/issues/24360"}
