class mpl_toolkits.axes_grid1.inset_locator.BboxConnector(bbox1, bbox2, loc1, loc2=None, **kwargs) [source]

Bases: matplotlib.patches.Patch

Connect two bboxes with a straight line.

Parameters:

bbox1, bbox2matplotlib.transforms.Bbox Bounding boxes to connect. loc1{1, 2, 3, 4} Corner of bbox1 to draw the line. Valid values are: 'upper right' : 1, 'upper left' : 2, 'lower left' : 3, 'lower right' : 4 loc2{1, 2, 3, 4}, optional Corner of bbox2 to draw the line. If None, defaults to loc1. Valid values are: 'upper right' : 1, 'upper left' : 2, 'lower left' : 3, 'lower right' : 4 **kwargs Patch properties for the line drawn. Valid arguments include: Property Description agg_filter a filter function, which takes a (m, n, 3) float array and a dpi value, and returns a (m, n, 3) array alpha float or None animated bool antialiased or aa unknown capstyle {'butt', 'round', 'projecting'} clip_box Bbox clip_on bool clip_path Patch or (Path, Transform) or None color color contains callable edgecolor or ec color or None or 'auto' facecolor or fc color or None figure Figure fill bool gid str hatch {'/', '\', '|', '-', '+', 'x', 'o', 'O', '.', '*'} in_layout bool joinstyle {'miter', 'round', 'bevel'} label object linestyle or ls {'-', '--', '-.', ':', '', (offset, on-off-seq), ...} linewidth or lw float or None path_effects AbstractPathEffect picker None or bool or float or callable rasterized bool or None sketch_params (scale: float, length: float, randomness: float) snap bool or None transform Transform url str visible bool zorder float
