class mpl_toolkits.mplot3d.art3d.Text3D(x=0, y=0, z=0, text='', zdir='z', **kwargs)[source]

Bases: matplotlib.text.Text

draw(renderer)[source]

Draw the Artist (and its children) using the given renderer.

This has no effect if the artist is not visible (Artist.get_visible returns False).

Parameters
rendererRendererBase subclass.

Notes

This method is overridden in the Artist subclasses.

get_position_3d()[source]

Return the (x, y, z) position of the text.

get_tightbbox(renderer)[source]

Like Artist.get_window_extent, but includes any clipping.

Parameters
rendererRendererBase subclass

renderer that will be used to draw the figures (i.e. fig.canvas.get_renderer())

Returns
Bbox

The enclosing bounding box (in figure pixel coordinates).
