matplotlib.scale

Scales define the distribution of data values on an axis, e.g. a log scaling.

They are attached to an Axis and hold a Transform, which is responsible for the actual data transformation.

See also axes.Axes.set_xscale and the scales examples in the documentation.

class matplotlib.scale.FuncScale(axis, functions) [source]

Bases: matplotlib.scale.ScaleBase

Provide an arbitrary scale with user-supplied function for the axis.

Parameters:	axisAxis The axis for the scale. functions(callable, callable) two-tuple of the forward and inverse functions for the scale. The forward function must be monotonic. Both functions must have the signature: def forward(values: array-like) -> array-like

get_transform(self) [source]

Return the FuncTransform associated with this scale.

name = 'function'

set_default_locators_and_formatters(self, axis) [source]

Set the locators and formatters of axis to instances suitable for this scale.

class matplotlib.scale.FuncScaleLog(axis, functions, base=10) [source]

Bases: matplotlib.scale.LogScale

Provide an arbitrary scale with user-supplied function for the axis and then put on a logarithmic axes.

Parameters:	axismatplotlib.axis.Axis The axis for the scale. functions(callable, callable) two-tuple of the forward and inverse functions for the scale. The forward function must be monotonic. Both functions must have the signature: def forward(values: array-like) -> array-like basefloat logarithmic base of the scale (default = 10)

property base

get_transform(self) [source]

Return the Transform associated with this scale.

name = 'functionlog'

class matplotlib.scale.FuncTransform(forward, inverse) [source]

Bases: matplotlib.transforms.Transform

A simple transform that takes and arbitrary function for the forward and inverse transform.

Parameters:	forwardcallable The forward function for the transform. This function must have an inverse and, for best behavior, be monotonic. It must have the signature: def forward(values: array-like) -> array-like inversecallable The inverse of the forward function. Signature as forward.

has_inverse = True

input_dims = 1

inverted(self) [source]

Return the corresponding inverse transformation.

It holds x == self.inverted().transform(self.transform(x)).

Performs only the non-affine part of the transformation.

transform(values) is always equivalent to transform_affine(transform_non_affine(values)).

Parameters:	valuesarray The input values as NumPy array of length input_dims or shape (N x input_dims).
Returns:	valuesarray The output values as NumPy array of length input_dims or shape (N x output_dims), depending on the input.

class matplotlib.scale.ScaleBase(axis, **kwargs) [source]

Bases: object

The base class for all scales.

Scales are separable transformations, working on a single dimension.

Any subclasses will want to override:

• name
• get_transform()
• set_default_locators_and_formatters()

And optionally:

• limit_range_for_scale()

Construct a new scale.

Notes

The following note is for scale implementors.

For back-compatibility reasons, scales take an Axis object as first argument. However, this argument should not be used: a single scale object should be usable by multiple Axises at the same time.

get_transform(self) [source]

Return the Transform object associated with this scale.

limit_range_for_scale(self, vmin, vmax, minpos) [source]

Returns the range vmin, vmax, possibly limited to the domain supported by this scale.

minpos should be the minimum positive value in the data. This is used by log scales to determine a minimum value.

set_default_locators_and_formatters(self, axis) [source]

Set the locators and formatters of axis to instances suitable for this scale.

class matplotlib.scale.SymmetricalLogScale(axis, **kwargs) [source]

Bases: matplotlib.scale.ScaleBase

The symmetrical logarithmic scale is logarithmic in both the positive and negative directions from the origin.

Since the values close to zero tend toward infinity, there is a need to have a range around zero that is linear. The parameter linthresh allows the user to specify the size of this range (-linthresh, linthresh).

Parameters:

basex, baseyfloat The base of the logarithm. Defaults to 10. linthreshx, linthreshyfloat Defines the range (-x, x), within which the plot is linear. This avoids having the plot go to infinity around zero. Defaults to 2. subsx, subsysequence of int Where to place the subticks between each major tick. For example, in a log10 scale: [2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9] will place 8 logarithmically spaced minor ticks between each major tick. linscalex, linscaleyfloat, optional This allows the linear range (-linthresh, linthresh) to be stretched relative to the logarithmic range. Its value is the number of decades to use for each half of the linear range. For example, when linscale == 1.0 (the default), the space used for the positive and negative halves of the linear range will be equal to one decade in the logarithmic range.

Construct a new scale.

Notes

The following note is for scale implementors.

For back-compatibility reasons, scales take an Axis object as first argument. However, this argument should not be used: a single scale object should be usable by multiple Axises at the same time.
