======================
Text annotations in 3D
======================

Demonstrates the placement of text annotations on a 3D plot.

Functionality shown:

- Using the `~.Axes3D.text` function with three types of *zdir* values: None,
  an axis name (ex. 'x'), or a direction tuple (ex. (1, 1, 0)).
- Using the `~.Axes3D.text` function with the color keyword.
- Using the `.text2D` function to place text on a fixed position on the ax
  object.
