mpl_toolkits.axes_grid1.anchored_artists.AnchoredDrawingArea

class mpl_toolkits.axes_grid1.anchored_artists.AnchoredDrawingArea(width, height, xdescent, ydescent, loc, pad=0.4, borderpad=0.5, prop=None, frameon=True, **kwargs) [source]

Bases: matplotlib.offsetbox.AnchoredOffsetbox

An anchored container with a fixed size and fillable DrawingArea.

Artists added to the drawing_area will have their coordinates interpreted as pixels. Any transformations set on the artists will be overridden.

Parameters:
width, height : int or float

width and height of the container, in pixels.

xdescent, ydescent : int or float

descent of the container in the x- and y- direction, in pixels.

loc : int

Location of this artist. Valid location codes are:

'upper right'  : 1,
'upper left'   : 2,
'lower left'   : 3,
'lower right'  : 4,
'right'        : 5,
'center left'  : 6,
'center right' : 7,
'lower center' : 8,
'upper center' : 9,
'center'       : 10
pad : int or float, optional

Padding around the child objects, in fraction of the font size. Defaults to 0.4.

borderpad : int or float, optional

Border padding, in fraction of the font size. Defaults to 0.5.

prop : matplotlib.font_manager.FontProperties, optional

Font property used as a reference for paddings.

frameon : bool, optional

If True, draw a box around this artists. Defaults to True.

**kwargs :

Keyworded arguments to pass to matplotlib.offsetbox.AnchoredOffsetbox.

Examples

To display blue and red circles of different sizes in the upper right of an axes ax:

>>> ada = AnchoredDrawingArea(20, 20, 0, 0,
...                           loc='upper right', frameon=False)
>>> ada.drawing_area.add_artist(Circle((10, 10), 10, fc="b"))
>>> ada.drawing_area.add_artist(Circle((30, 10), 5, fc="r"))
>>> ax.add_artist(ada)
Attributes:
drawing_area : matplotlib.offsetbox.DrawingArea

A container for artists to display.
