Get a single simulation as a list of Matplotlib objects.

Parameters:

index: Index of the simulation to get collections from. If not given, this is the first simulation.
coordinates: The coordinates of the plot axes, either "detector" (default) or "gnomonic".
lines: Whether to get the collection of Kikuchi lines. Default is True. These are returned as matplotlib.collections.LineCollection.
zone_axes: Whether to get the collection of zone axes. Default is False. These are returned as matplotlib.collections.PathCollection.
zone_axes_labels: Whether to get the collection of zone axes labels. Default is False. These are returned as a class:list of matplotlib.text.Text.
lines_kwargs: Keyword arguments passed to matplotlib.collections.LineCollection to format Kikuchi lines if lines=True.
zone_axes_kwargs: Keyword arguments passed to matplotlib.collections.PathCollection to format zone axes if zone_axes=True.
zone_axes_labels_kwargs: Keyword arguments passed to matplotlib.text.Text to format zone axes labels if zone_axes_labels=True.

Returns:

collection_list: List of Matplotlib collections.
