I'm building plots in stages using several different functions. Since the figure contains all information, I don't hand handles to individual elements around.
What's the best way to check for a specific plot element? using isinstance, or are there specific attributes that could be checked? For example, I want to add a colorbar to the figure corresponding to the first axis.imshow: >>> images = [c for ax in f.axes for c in ax.get_children() if isinstance(c, >>> mpl.image.AxesImage)] >>> images [<matplotlib.image.AxesImage object at 0x08C0CAD0>] >>> f.colorbar(images[0]) <matplotlib.colorbar.Colorbar instance at 0x08E033F0> >>> f <matplotlib.figure.Figure object at 0x08B614D0> example using recipe http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/pylab_examples/subplots_adjust.html https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-rpw4NHbXvxM/TpmnumYNcRI/AAAAAAAAAK0/5zLnnUPjg0A/corrmatrixgrid.png Thanks, Josef ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity and more.
