class mpl_toolkits.axes_grid1.inset_locator.BboxConnectorPatch(bbox1, bbox2, loc1a, loc2a, loc1b, loc2b, **kwargs)[source]

Connect two bboxes with a quadrilateral.

The quadrilateral is specified by two lines that start and end at corners of the bboxes. The four sides of the quadrilateral are defined by the two lines given, the line between the two corners specified in bbox1 and the line between the two corners specified in bbox2.

Parameters:
bbox1, bbox2 : matplotlib.transforms.Bbox

Bounding boxes to connect.

loc1a, loc2a : {1, 2, 3, 4}

Corners of bbox1 and bbox2 to draw the first line. Valid values are:

'upper right'  : 1,
'upper left'   : 2,
'lower left'   : 3,
'lower right'  : 4
loc1b, loc2b : {1, 2, 3, 4}

Corners of bbox1 and bbox2 to draw the second line. Valid values are:

'upper right'  : 1,
'upper left'   : 2,
'lower left'   : 3,
'lower right'  : 4
**kwargs
