Slicing for 3D volume does not work #414
Description
Versions
python 3.8.12
ipyvolume 0.6.0a10
Problem
I followed the tutorial to create slices in 3d volume https://ipyvolume.readthedocs.io/en/latest/examples/slice.html. First I show show the volume with
import ipyvolume as ipv
fig = ipv.figure()
scatter = ipv.examples.gaussian(show=False)
ipv.show()
then I try to add the slice planes with
plane = ipv.plot_plane("z");
but I got an error instead
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
UnboundLocalError Traceback (most recent call last)
Input In [71], in <cell line: 1>()

File ~/anaconda3/envs/mozek/lib/python3.8/site-packages/ipyvolume/pylab.py:1113, in plot_plane(where, texture)
1111 u = [0., 1., 1., 0.]
1112 v = [0., 0., 1., 1.]
-> 1113 mesh = plot_trisurf(x, y, z, triangles, texture=texture, u=u, v=v)
1114 return mesh
UnboundLocalError: local variable 'x' referenced before assignment
Do you have any idea why the slicing tutorial is not reproducible in my environment?

It appears there was a major update to the plot_plane function such that the 'where' options were changed from {'x', 'y','z'} to {'front', 'back', 'left', 'right', 'top', 'bottom'}. If you change the plot_plane argument to "top", you will solve this error, but other errors will arise.
