matplotlib.axes.Axes.broken_barh

Axes.broken_barh(xranges, yrange, *, data=None, **kwargs) [source]

Plot a horizontal sequence of rectangles.

A rectangle is drawn for each element of xranges. All rectangles have the same vertical position and size defined by yrange.

This is a convenience function for instantiating a BrokenBarHCollection, adding it to the axes and autoscaling the view.

Parameters:
xranges : sequence of tuples (xmin, xwidth)

The x-positions and extends of the rectangles. For each tuple (xmin, xwidth) a rectangle is drawn from xmin to xmin + xwidth.

yranges : (ymin, ymax)

The y-position and extend for all the rectangles.

Returns:
collection : A BrokenBarHCollection
Other Parameters:
**kwargs : BrokenBarHCollection properties

Each kwarg can be either a single argument applying to all rectangles, e.g.:

facecolors='black'

or a sequence of arguments over which is cycled, e.g.:

facecolors=('black', 'blue')

would create interleaving black and blue rectangles.

Notes

Note

In addition to the above described arguments, this function can take a data keyword argument. If such a data argument is given, the following arguments are replaced by data[<arg>]:

  • All positional and all keyword arguments.

Objects passed as data must support item access (data[<arg>]) and membership test (<arg> in data).
