matplotlib.animation.TimedAnimation

class matplotlib.animation.TimedAnimation(fig, interval=200, repeat_delay=None, repeat=True, event_source=None, *args, **kwargs)[source]

Animation subclass for time-based animation.

A new frame is drawn every interval milliseconds.

Parameters:
figFigure

The figure object that is used to get draw, resize, and any other needed events.

intervalnumber, optional

Delay between frames in milliseconds. Defaults to 200.

repeat_delaynumber, optional

If the animation in repeated, adds a delay in milliseconds before repeating the animation. Defaults to None.

repeatbool, optional

Controls whether the animation should repeat when the sequence of frames is completed. Defaults to True.

blitbool, optional

Controls whether blitting is used to optimize drawing. Defaults to False.

__init__(self, fig, interval=200, repeat_delay=None, repeat=True, event_source=None, *args, **kwargs)[source]

Initialize self. See help(type(self)) for accurate signature.

Methods

__init__(self, fig[, interval, ...]) Initialize self.
new_frame_seq(self) Return a new sequence of frame information.
new_saved_frame_seq(self) Return a new sequence of saved/cached frame information.
save(self, filename[, writer, fps, dpi, ...]) Save the animation as a movie file by drawing every frame.
to_html5_video(self[, embed_limit]) Convert the animation to an HTML5 <video> tag.
to_jshtml(self[, fps, embed_frames, ...]) Generate HTML representation of the animation
