matplotlib.axes.Axes.grid
-
Axes.grid(self, b=None, which='major', axis='both', **kwargs)
-
Configure the grid lines.
Parameters: -
b : bool or None, optional
-
Whether to show the grid lines. If any kwargs are supplied, it is assumed you want the grid on and b will be set to True.
If b is None and there are no kwargs, this toggles the visibility of the lines.
-
which : {'major', 'minor', 'both'}, optional
-
The grid lines to apply the changes on.
-
axis : {'both', 'x', 'y'}, optional
-
The axis to apply the changes on.
-
**kwargs : Line2D properties
-
Define the line properties of the grid, e.g.:
grid(color='r', linestyle='-', linewidth=2)
Valid kwargs are

Notes
The axis is drawn as a unit, so the effective zorder for drawing the grid is determined by the zorder of each axis, not by the zorder of the
Line2D
objects comprising the grid. Therefore, to set grid zorder, useset_axisbelow
or, for more control, call theset_zorder
method of each axis. -
