mpl_toolkits.axes_grid1.axes_divider.Divider

class mpl_toolkits.axes_grid1.axes_divider.Divider(fig, pos, horizontal, vertical, aspect=None, anchor='C') [source]

Bases: object

This class calculates the axes position. It divides the given rectangular area into several sub-rectangles. You initialize the divider by setting the horizontal and vertical lists of sizes (mpl_toolkits.axes_grid.axes_size) that the division will be based on. You then use the new_locator method to create a callable object that can be used as the axes_locator of the axes.

Parameters:

fig : Figure pos : tuple of 4 floats position of the rectangle that will be divided horizontal : list of axes_size sizes for horizontal division vertical : list of axes_size sizes for vertical division aspect : bool if True, the overall rectangular area is reduced so that the relative part of the horizontal and vertical scales have the same scale. anchor : {'C', 'SW', 'S', 'SE', 'E', 'NE', 'N', 'NW', 'W'} placement of the reduced rectangle when aspect is True

locate(nx, ny, nx1=None, ny1=None, axes=None, renderer=None) [source]

Parameters:	nx, nx1 : int Integers specifying the column-position of the cell. When nx1 is None, a single nx-th column is specified. Otherwise location of columns spanning between nx to nx1 (but excluding nx1-th column) is specified. ny, ny1 : int Same as nx and nx1, but for row positions. axes renderer

new_locator(nx, ny, nx1=None, ny1=None) [source]

Returns a new locator (mpl_toolkits.axes_grid.axes_divider.AxesLocator) for specified cell.

Parameters:	nx, nx1 : int Integers specifying the column-position of the cell. When nx1 is None, a single nx-th column is specified. Otherwise location of columns spanning between nx to nx1 (but excluding nx1-th column) is specified. ny, ny1 : int Same as nx and nx1, but for row positions.

set_anchor(anchor) [source]

Parameters:	anchor : {'C', 'SW', 'S', 'SE', 'E', 'NE', 'N', 'NW', 'W'} anchor position value description 'C' Center 'SW' bottom left 'S' bottom 'SE' bottom right 'E' right 'NE' top right 'N' top 'NW' top left 'W' left
