Add two actors to a pyvista.Plotter, make one pickable, and then list the pickable actors.

>>> import pyvista as pv
>>> pl = pv.Plotter()
>>> sphere_actor = pl.add_mesh(pv.Sphere())
>>> cube_actor = pl.add_mesh(pv.Cube(), pickable=False, style='wireframe')
>>> len(pl.pickable_actors)
1

Set the pickable actors to both actors.

>>> pl.pickable_actors = [sphere_actor, cube_actor]
>>> len(pl.pickable_actors)
2

Set the pickable actors to None.

>>> pl.pickable_actors = None
>>> len(pl.pickable_actors)
