Re: [Matplotlib-users] how to make mat.figure.Figure.add_axes generated axes adjustable with the interactive tool?

2013-07-29 Thread Sterling Smith
Chao,

From your description, it is clear that you are using a very customized 
application of axes placement and design.  The only method that I see for 
replacing your current setup with Subplots (I use the upper case to denote the 
instances of the class, which do respond to the left/right/wspace parameters) 
is the following (untested):
{{{
fig,axs = plt.subplots(2,3)
for i,ax in enumerate(axs.flat):

ax.plot(time,data)
ymin,ymax = ax.get_ylim()
ax.set_ylim(ymin=ymin,ymax=ymin+2*(ymax-ymin))
labels = ax.get_yticklabels()
for l in labels:
if float(l.get_text())  ymax:
l.set_visible(False)
ax2 = ax.twinx()
ymin,ymax = ax2.get_ylim()
ax2.set_ylim(ymin=ymax-2*(ymax-ymin),ymax=ymax)
labels = ax2.get_yticklabels()
for l in labels:
if float(l.get_text())  ymin:
l.set_visible(False)

}}}

Some of this is inspired by http://matplotlib.org/examples/api/two_scales.html 
and similar examples/applications.

Hope that helps,
Sterling

 Hi, thanks.
 
 the attached is what I achieved so far. Looks quite nice.
 
 each subplot visible now actually contains two mat.axes.Axes object (with 
 bottom and top spines invisible)
 which is created by using the fig.add_axes, before the place occupied by the 
 two axes now is actually
 only one single subplot ojbect, which is created by using fig,axs = 
 plt.subplots(2,3). something like this:
 
 for ax in axs.flatten():
  #some way to find the position of the two new axes
  sub1 = fig.add_axes()
  sub2 = fig.add_axes()
  fig.delaxes(ax)
 
 Now the problem is that all the original subplots have been removed, replaced 
 by 2X6 mat.axes.Axes,
 But they don't respond to any operation in the interacitve window (like, you 
 can use your mouse to select
 the left/righ/wspace etc)
 
 I hope I am clear. thanks!

 You are right, fig.add_subplot does not support precise positioning.  Why

[Matplotlib-users] how to make mat.figure.Figure.add_axes generated axes adjustable with the interactive tool?

Dear all,

First I make some subplots using the plt.subplots command,
then I use mat.figure.Figure.delaxes to delete the axes, and add some small
new ones
in the same space by using mat.figure.Figure.add_axes, but I find after
rendering the
figure in the interative window, I cannot adjust the
left/right/bottom/wspace etc in a
interactive way, the old subplots that are generated using plt.subplots
command will
move, and the new ones generated using mat.figure.Figure.add_axes just don't
move at all, so what should I do if I want the new ones also move? Because
the interative window is really useful when you want to have figures
quickly.

thanks a lot for any hints.

Chao,

plt.subplots returns a figure instance.  Can you use the add_subplot method of 
that figure instance to make your new axes?  If so, then I think that they 
should respond to the new requests for left/right/bottom/wspace space.
