.. module:: mpl_toolkits.axisartist Matplotlib axisartist Toolkit ============================= The *axisartist* namespace includes a derived Axes implementation ( :class:`mpl_toolkits.axisartist.Axes`). The biggest difference is that the artists that are responsible for drawing axis lines, ticks, ticklabels, and axis labels are separated out from the mpl's Axis class. This change was strongly motivated to support curvilinear grid. You can find a tutorial describing usage of axisartist at the :ref:`axisartist_users-guide-index` user guide. .. figure:: ../../gallery/axisartist/images/sphx_glr_demo_curvelinear_grid_001.png :target: ../../gallery/axisartist/demo_curvelinear_grid.html :align: center :scale: 50 .. currentmodule:: mpl_toolkits **The submodules of the axisartist API are:** .. autosummary:: :toctree: ../_as_gen :template: automodule.rst axisartist.angle_helper axisartist.axes_divider axisartist.axes_grid axisartist.axes_rgb axisartist.axis_artist axisartist.axisline_style axisartist.axislines axisartist.clip_path axisartist.floating_axes axisartist.grid_finder axisartist.grid_helper_curvelinear axisartist.parasite_axes
