mpl_toolkits.axes_grid1.axes_size

Provides classes of simple units that will be used with AxesDivider class (or others) to determine the size of each axes. The unit classes define get_size method that returns a tuple of two floats, meaning relative and absolute sizes, respectively.

Note that this class is nothing more than a simple tuple of two floats. Take a look at the Divider class to see how these two values are used.

Classes

Add(a, b)

AddList(add_list)

AxesX(axes[, aspect, ref_ax])

Scaled size whose relative part corresponds to the data width of the axes multiplied by the aspect.

AxesY(axes[, aspect, ref_ax])

Scaled size whose relative part corresponds to the data height of the axes multiplied by the aspect.

Fixed(fixed_size)

Simple fixed size with absolute part = fixed_size and relative part = 0.

Fraction(fraction, ref_size)

An instance whose size is a fraction of the ref_size.

GetExtentHelper(ax, direction)

MaxExtent(artist_list, w_or_h)

Size whose absolute part is either the largest width or the largest height of the given artist_list.

MaxHeight(artist_list)

Size whose absolute part is the largest height of the given artist_list.

MaxWidth(artist_list)

Size whose absolute part is the largest width of the given artist_list.

Padded(size, pad)

Return a instance where the absolute part of size is increase by the amount of pad.

Scalable

alias of mpl_toolkits.axes_grid1.axes_size.Scaled

Scaled(scalable_size)

Simple scaled(?) size with absolute part = 0 and relative part = scalable_size.

SizeFromFunc(func)

Functions

from_any(size[, fraction_ref])

Create a Fixed unit when the first argument is a float, or a Fraction unit if that is a string that ends with %.
