Matplotlib axisartist ToolkitΒΆ

The axisartist namespace includes a derived Axes implementation ( 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 axisartist user guide.

The submodules of the axisartist API are:

axisartist.angle_helper
axisartist.axes_divider
axisartist.axes_grid
axisartist.axes_rgb
axisartist.axis_artist The axis_artist module implements custom artists to draw axis elements (axis lines and labels, tick lines and labels, grid lines).
axisartist.axisline_style
axisartist.axislines Axislines includes modified implementation of the Axes class.
axisartist.clip_path
axisartist.floating_axes An experimental support for curvilinear grid.
axisartist.grid_finder
axisartist.grid_helper_curvelinear An experimental support for curvilinear grid.
axisartist.parasite_axes
