Classes

`Arc`(xy, width, height[, angle, theta1, theta2])	An elliptical arc.
`Arrow`(x, y, dx, dy[, width])	An arrow patch.
`ArrowStyle`	`ArrowStyle` is a container class which defines several arrowstyle classes, which is used to create an arrow path along a given path.
`BoxStyle`	`BoxStyle` is a container class which defines several boxstyle classes, which are used for `FancyBboxPatch`.
`Circle`(xy[, radius])	A circle patch.
`CirclePolygon`(xy[, radius, resolution])	A polygon-approximation of a circle patch.
`ConnectionPatch`(xyA, xyB, coordsA[, ...])	A `ConnectionPatch` class is to make connecting lines between two points (possibly in different axes).
`ConnectionStyle`	`ConnectionStyle` is a container class which defines several connectionstyle classes, which is used to create a path between two points.
`Ellipse`(xy, width, height[, angle])	A scale-free ellipse.
`FancyArrow`(x, y, dx, dy[, width, ...])	Like Arrow, but lets you set head width and head height independently.
`FancyArrowPatch`([posA, posB, path, ...])	A fancy arrow patch.
`FancyBboxPatch`(xy, width, height[, ...])	Draw a fancy box around a rectangle with lower left at xy=(x, y) with specified width and height.
`Patch`([edgecolor, facecolor, color, ...])	A patch is a 2D artist with a face color and an edge color.
`PathPatch`(path, **kwargs)	A general polycurve path patch.
`Polygon`(xy[, closed])	A general polygon patch.
`Rectangle`(xy, width, height[, angle])	Draw a rectangle with lower left at xy = (x, y) with specified width, height and rotation angle.
`RegularPolygon`(xy, numVertices[, radius, ...])	A regular polygon patch.
`Shadow`(patch, ox, oy[, props])	Create a shadow of the given patch offset by ox, oy.
`Wedge`(center, r, theta1, theta2[, width])	Wedge shaped patch.
`YAArrow`(**kwargs)	Deprecated since version 3.0.

Functions

`bbox_artist`(artist, renderer[, props, fill])	This is a debug function to draw a rectangle around the bounding box returned by `get_window_extent()` of an artist, to test whether the artist is returning the correct bbox.
`draw_bbox`(bbox, renderer[, color, trans])	This is a debug function to draw a rectangle around the bounding box returned by `get_window_extent()` of an artist, to test whether the artist is returning the correct bbox.
