set_picker(picker)[source] Define the picking behavior of the artist. Parameters pickerNone or bool or float or callable This can be one of the following: None: Picking is disabled for this artist (default). A boolean: If True then picking will be enabled and the artist will fire a pick event if the mouse event is over the artist. A float: If picker is a number it is interpreted as an epsilon tolerance in points and the artist will fire off an event if its data is within epsilon of the mouse event. For some artists like lines and patch collections, the artist may provide additional data to the pick event that is generated, e.g., the indices of the data within epsilon of the pick event A function: If picker is callable, it is a user supplied function which determines whether the artist is hit by the mouse event: hit, props = picker(artist, mouseevent) to determine the hit test. if the mouse event is over the artist, return hit=True and props is a dictionary of properties you want added to the PickEvent attributes.
matplotlib.figure_api#matplotlib.figure.SubFigure.set_picker
set_rasterized(rasterized)[source] Force rasterized (bitmap) drawing for vector graphics output. Rasterized drawing is not supported by all artists. If you try to enable this on an artist that does not support it, the command has no effect and a warning will be issued. This setting is ignored for pixel-based output. See also Rasterization for vector graphics. Parameters rasterizedbool
matplotlib.figure_api#matplotlib.figure.SubFigure.set_rasterized
set_sketch_params(scale=None, length=None, randomness=None)[source] Set the sketch parameters. Parameters scalefloat, optional The amplitude of the wiggle perpendicular to the source line, in pixels. If scale is None, or not provided, no sketch filter will be provided. lengthfloat, optional The length of the wiggle along the line, in pixels (default 128.0) randomnessfloat, optional The scale factor by which the length is shrunken or expanded (default 16.0) The PGF backend uses this argument as an RNG seed and not as described above. Using the same seed yields the same random shape.
matplotlib.figure_api#matplotlib.figure.SubFigure.set_sketch_params
set_snap(snap)[source] Set the snapping behavior. Snapping aligns positions with the pixel grid, which results in clearer images. For example, if a black line of 1px width was defined at a position in between two pixels, the resulting image would contain the interpolated value of that line in the pixel grid, which would be a grey value on both adjacent pixel positions. In contrast, snapping will move the line to the nearest integer pixel value, so that the resulting image will really contain a 1px wide black line. Snapping is currently only supported by the Agg and MacOSX backends. Parameters snapbool or None Possible values: True: Snap vertices to the nearest pixel center. False: Do not modify vertex positions. None: (auto) If the path contains only rectilinear line segments, round to the nearest pixel center.
matplotlib.figure_api#matplotlib.figure.SubFigure.set_snap
set_transform(t)[source] Set the artist transform. Parameters tTransform

matplotlib.figure_api#matplotlib.figure.SubFigure.set_zorder
subfigures(nrows=1, ncols=1, squeeze=True, wspace=None, hspace=None, width_ratios=None, height_ratios=None, **kwargs)[source] Add a subfigure to this figure or subfigure. A subfigure has the same artist methods as a figure, and is logically the same as a figure, but cannot print itself. See Figure subfigures. Parameters nrows, ncolsint, default: 1 Number of rows/columns of the subfigure grid. squeezebool, default: True If True, extra dimensions are squeezed out from the returned array of subfigures. wspace, hspacefloat, default: None The amount of width/height reserved for space between subfigures, expressed as a fraction of the average subfigure width/height. If not given, the values will be inferred from a figure or rcParams when necessary. width_ratiosarray-like of length ncols, optional Defines the relative widths of the columns. Each column gets a relative width of width_ratios[i] / sum(width_ratios). If not given, all columns will have the same width. height_ratiosarray-like of length nrows, optional Defines the relative heights of the rows. Each row gets a relative height of height_ratios[i] / sum(height_ratios). If not given, all rows will have the same height.
matplotlib.figure_api#matplotlib.figure.SubFigure.subfigures
subplot_mosaic(mosaic, *, sharex=False, sharey=False, subplot_kw=None, gridspec_kw=None, empty_sentinel='.')[source] Build a layout of Axes based on ASCII art or nested lists. This is a helper function to build complex GridSpec layouts visually. Note This API is provisional and may be revised in the future based on early user feedback. Parameters mosaiclist of list of {hashable or nested} or str A visual layout of how you want your Axes to be arranged labeled as strings. For example x = [['A panel', 'A panel', 'edge'], ['C panel', '.', 'edge']] produces 4 Axes: 'A panel' which is 1 row high and spans the first two columns 'edge' which is 2 rows high and is on the right edge 'C panel' which in 1 row and 1 column wide in the bottom left a blank space 1 row and 1 column wide in the bottom center Any of the entries in the layout can be a list of lists of the same form to create nested layouts. If input is a str, then it can either be a multi-line string of the form ''' AAE C.E ''' where each character is a column and each line is a row. Or it can be a single-line string where rows are separated by ;: 'AB;CC' The string notation allows only single character Axes labels and does not support nesting but is very terse. sharex, shareybool, default: False If True, the x-axis (sharex) or y-axis (sharey) will be shared among all subplots. In that case, tick label visibility and axis units behave as for subplots. If False, each subplot's x- or y-axis will be independent. subplot_kwdict, optional Dictionary with keywords passed to the Figure.add_subplot call used to create each subplot. gridspec_kwdict, optional Dictionary with keywords passed to the GridSpec constructor used to create the grid the subplots are placed on. empty_sentinelobject, optional Entry in the layout to mean "leave this space empty". Defaults to '.'. Note, if layout is a string, it is processed via inspect.cleandoc to remove leading white space, which may interfere with using white-space as the empty sentinel. Returns dict[label, Axes] A dictionary mapping the labels to the Axes objects. The order of the axes is left-to-right and top-to-bottom of their position in the total layout.
matplotlib.figure_api#matplotlib.figure.SubFigure.subplot_mosaic
subplots(nrows=1, ncols=1, *, sharex=False, sharey=False, squeeze=True, subplot_kw=None, gridspec_kw=None)[source] Add a set of subplots to this figure. This utility wrapper makes it convenient to create common layouts of subplots in a single call. Parameters nrows, ncolsint, default: 1 Number of rows/columns of the subplot grid. sharex, shareybool or {'none', 'all', 'row', 'col'}, default: False Controls sharing of x-axis (sharex) or y-axis (sharey): True or 'all': x- or y-axis will be shared among all subplots. False or 'none': each subplot x- or y-axis will be independent. 'row': each subplot row will share an x- or y-axis. 'col': each subplot column will share an x- or y-axis. When subplots have a shared x-axis along a column, only the x tick labels of the bottom subplot are created. Similarly, when subplots have a shared y-axis along a row, only the y tick labels of the first column subplot are created. To later turn other subplots' ticklabels on, use tick_params. When subplots have a shared axis that has units, calling Axis.set_units will update each axis with the new units. squeezebool, default: True If True, extra dimensions are squeezed out from the returned array of Axes: if only one subplot is constructed (nrows=ncols=1), the resulting single Axes object is returned as a scalar. for Nx1 or 1xM subplots, the returned object is a 1D numpy object array of Axes objects. for NxM, subplots with N>1 and M>1 are returned as a 2D array. If False, no squeezing at all is done: the returned Axes object is always a 2D array containing Axes instances, even if it ends up being 1x1. subplot_kwdict, optional Dict with keywords passed to the Figure.add_subplot call used to create each subplot. gridspec_kwdict, optional Dict with keywords passed to the GridSpec constructor used to create the grid the subplots are placed on. Returns Axes or array of Axes Either a single Axes object or an array of Axes objects if more than one subplot was created. The dimensions of the resulting array can be controlled with the squeeze keyword, see above. See also pyplot.subplots Figure.add_subplot pyplot.subplot Examples # First create some toy data: x = np.linspace(0, 2*np.pi, 400) y = np.sin(x**2) # Create a figure plt.figure() # Create a subplot ax = fig.subplots() ax.plot(x, y) ax.set_title('Simple plot') # Create two subplots and unpack the output array immediately ax1, ax2 = fig.subplots(1, 2, sharey=True) ax1.plot(x, y) ax1.set_title('Sharing Y axis') ax2.scatter(x, y) # Create four polar Axes and access them through the returned array axes = fig.subplots(2, 2, subplot_kw=dict(projection='polar')) axes[0, 0].plot(x, y) axes[1, 1].scatter(x, y) # Share a X axis with each column of subplots fig.subplots(2, 2, sharex='col') # Share a Y axis with each row of subplots fig.subplots(2, 2, sharey='row') # Share both X and Y axes with all subplots fig.subplots(2, 2, sharex='all', sharey='all') # Note that this is the same as fig.subplots(2, 2, sharex=True, sharey=True)

matplotlib.font_manager A module for finding, managing, and using fonts across platforms. This module provides a single FontManager instance that can be shared across backends and platforms. The findfont function returns the best TrueType (TTF) font file in the local or system font path that matches the specified FontProperties instance. The FontManager also handles Adobe Font Metrics (AFM) font files for use by the PostScript backend. The design is based on the W3C Cascading Style Sheet, Level 1 (CSS1) font specification. Future versions may implement the Level 2 or 2.1 specifications. classmatplotlib.font_manager.FontManager(size=None, weight='normal')[source] Bases: object On import, the FontManager singleton instance creates a list of ttf and afm fonts and caches their FontProperties. The FontManager.findfont method does a nearest neighbor search to find the font that most closely matches the specification. If no good enough match is found, the default font is returned. addfont(path)[source] Cache the properties of the font at path to make it available to the FontManager. The type of font is inferred from the path suffix. Parameters pathstr or path-like propertydefaultFont findfont(prop, fontext='ttf', directory=None, fallback_to_default=True, rebuild_if_missing=True)[source] Find a font that most closely matches the given font properties. Parameters propstr or FontProperties The font properties to search for. This can be either a FontProperties object or a string defining a fontconfig patterns. fontext{'ttf', 'afm'}, default: 'ttf' The extension of the font file: 'ttf': TrueType and OpenType fonts (.ttf, .ttc, .otf) 'afm': Adobe Font Metrics (.afm) directorystr, optional If given, only search this directory and its subdirectories. fallback_to_defaultbool If True, will fallback to the default font family (usually "DejaVu Sans" or "Helvetica") if the first lookup hard-fails. rebuild_if_missingbool Whether to rebuild the font cache and search again if the first match appears to point to a nonexisting font (i.e., the font cache contains outdated entries). Returns str The filename of the best matching font. Notes This performs a nearest neighbor search. Each font is given a similarity score to the target font properties. The first font with the highest score is returned. If no matches below a certain threshold are found, the default font (usually DejaVu Sans) is returned. The result is cached, so subsequent lookups don't have to perform the O(n) nearest neighbor search. See the W3C Cascading Style Sheet, Level 1 documentation for a description of the font finding algorithm. staticget_default_size()[source] Return the default font size. get_default_weight()[source] Return the default font weight. score_family(families, family2)[source] Return a match score between the list of font families in families and the font family name family2. An exact match at the head of the list returns 0.0. A match further down the list will return between 0 and 1. No match will return 1.0. score_size(size1, size2)[source] Return a match score between size1 and size2. If size2 (the size specified in the font file) is 'scalable', this function always returns 0.0, since any font size can be generated. Otherwise, the result is the absolute distance between size1 and size2, normalized so that the usual range of font sizes (6pt - 72pt) will lie between 0.0 and 1.0. score_stretch(stretch1, stretch2)[source] Return a match score between stretch1 and stretch2. The result is the absolute value of the difference between the CSS numeric values of stretch1 and stretch2, normalized between 0.0 and 1.0. score_style(style1, style2)[source] Return a match score between style1 and style2. An exact match returns 0.0. A match between 'italic' and 'oblique' returns 0.1. No match returns 1.0. score_variant(variant1, variant2)[source] Return a match score between variant1 and variant2. An exact match returns 0.0, otherwise 1.0. score_weight(weight1, weight2)[source] Return a match score between weight1 and weight2. The result is 0.0 if both weight1 and weight 2 are given as strings and have the same value. Otherwise, the result is the absolute value of the difference between the CSS numeric values of weight1 and weight2, normalized between 0.05 and 1.0. set_default_weight(weight)[source] Set the default font weight. The initial value is 'normal'. classmatplotlib.font_manager.FontProperties(family=None, style=None, variant=None, weight=None, stretch=None, size=None, fname=None, math_fontfamily=None)[source] Bases: object A class for storing and manipulating font properties. The font properties are the six properties described in the W3C Cascading Style Sheet, Level 1 font specification and math_fontfamily for math fonts: family: A list of font names in decreasing order of priority. The items may include a generic font family name, either 'sans-serif' (default), 'serif', 'cursive', 'fantasy', or 'monospace'. In that case, the actual font to be used will be looked up from the associated rcParam. style: Either 'normal' (default), 'italic' or 'oblique'. variant: Either 'normal' (default) or 'small-caps'. stretch: A numeric value in the range 0-1000 or one of 'ultra-condensed', 'extra-condensed', 'condensed', 'semi-condensed', 'normal' (default), 'semi-expanded', 'expanded', 'extra-expanded' or 'ultra-expanded'. weight: A numeric value in the range 0-1000 or one of 'ultralight', 'light', 'normal' (default), 'regular', 'book', 'medium', 'roman', 'semibold', 'demibold', 'demi', 'bold', 'heavy', 'extra bold', 'black'. size: Either an relative value of 'xx-small', 'x-small', 'small', 'medium', 'large', 'x-large', 'xx-large' or an absolute font size, e.g., 10 (default). math_fontfamily: The family of fonts used to render math text; overrides rcParams["mathtext.fontset"] (default: 'dejavusans'). Supported values are the same as the ones supported by rcParams["mathtext.fontset"] (default: 'dejavusans'): 'dejavusans', 'dejavuserif', 'cm', 'stix', 'stixsans' and 'custom'. Alternatively, a font may be specified using the absolute path to a font file, by using the fname kwarg. However, in this case, it is typically simpler to just pass the path (as a pathlib.Path, not a str) to the font kwarg of the Text object. The preferred usage of font sizes is to use the relative values, e.g., 'large', instead of absolute font sizes, e.g., 12. This approach allows all text sizes to be made larger or smaller based on the font manager's default font size. This class will also accept a fontconfig pattern, if it is the only argument provided. This support does not depend on fontconfig; we are merely borrowing its pattern syntax for use here.

classmatplotlib.font_manager.FontProperties(family=None, style=None, variant=None, weight=None, stretch=None, size=None, fname=None, math_fontfamily=None)[source] Bases: object A class for storing and manipulating font properties. The font properties are the six properties described in the W3C Cascading Style Sheet, Level 1 font specification and math_fontfamily for math fonts: family: A list of font names in decreasing order of priority. The items may include a generic font family name, either 'sans-serif' (default), 'serif', 'cursive', 'fantasy', or 'monospace'. In that case, the actual font to be used will be looked up from the associated rcParam. style: Either 'normal' (default), 'italic' or 'oblique'. variant: Either 'normal' (default) or 'small-caps'. stretch: A numeric value in the range 0-1000 or one of 'ultra-condensed', 'extra-condensed', 'condensed', 'semi-condensed', 'normal' (default), 'semi-expanded', 'expanded', 'extra-expanded' or 'ultra-expanded'. weight: A numeric value in the range 0-1000 or one of 'ultralight', 'light', 'normal' (default), 'regular', 'book', 'medium', 'roman', 'semibold', 'demibold', 'demi', 'bold', 'heavy', 'extra bold', 'black'. size: Either an relative value of 'xx-small', 'x-small', 'small', 'medium', 'large', 'x-large', 'xx-large' or an absolute font size, e.g., 10 (default). math_fontfamily: The family of fonts used to render math text; overrides rcParams["mathtext.fontset"] (default: 'dejavusans'). Supported values are the same as the ones supported by rcParams["mathtext.fontset"] (default: 'dejavusans'): 'dejavusans', 'dejavuserif', 'cm', 'stix', 'stixsans' and 'custom'. Alternatively, a font may be specified using the absolute path to a font file, by using the fname kwarg. However, in this case, it is typically simpler to just pass the path (as a pathlib.Path, not a str) to the font kwarg of the Text object. The preferred usage of font sizes is to use the relative values, e.g., 'large', instead of absolute font sizes, e.g., 12. This approach allows all text sizes to be made larger or smaller based on the font manager's default font size. This class will also accept a fontconfig pattern, if it is the only argument provided.

matplotlib.font_manager.json_dump(data, filename)[source] Dump FontManager data as JSON to the file named filename. See also json_load Notes File paths that are children of the Matplotlib data path (typically, fonts shipped with Matplotlib) are stored relative to that data path (to remain valid across virtualenvs). This function temporarily locks the output file to prevent multiple processes from overwriting one another's output.
matplotlib.font_manager_api#matplotlib.font_manager.json_dump
matplotlib.font_manager.json_load(filename)[source] Load a FontManager from the JSON file named filename. See also json_dump
matplotlib.font_manager_api#matplotlib.font_manager.json_load

matplotlib.font_manager_api#matplotlib.font_manager.list_fonts
matplotlib.font_manager.ttfFontProperty(font)[source] Extract information from a TrueType font file. Parameters fontFT2Font The TrueType font file from which information will be extracted. Returns FontEntry The extracted font properties.
matplotlib.font_manager_api#matplotlib.font_manager.ttfFontProperty
matplotlib.font_manager.win32FontDirectory()[source] Return the user-specified font directory for Win32. This is looked up from the registry key \\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders\Fonts If the key is not found, %WINDIR%\Fonts will be returned.
matplotlib.font_manager_api#matplotlib.font_manager.win32FontDirectory
matplotlib.font_manager.win32InstalledFonts(directory=None, fontext='ttf')[source] [Deprecated] Search for fonts in the specified font directory, or use the system directories if none given. Additionally, it is searched for user fonts installed. A list of TrueType font filenames are returned by default, or AFM fonts if fontext == 'afm'. Notes Deprecated since version 3.5.
