classmpl_toolkits.axisartist.axis_artist.LabelBase(*args,**kwargs)[source]#

Bases:Text

A base class forAxisLabel andTickLabels. The position andangle of the text are calculated by the offset_ref_angle,text_ref_angle, and offset_radius attributes.

Create aText instance atx,y with stringtext.

The text is aligned relative to the anchor point (x,y) accordingtohorizontalalignment (default: 'left') andverticalalignment(default: 'baseline'). See alsoText alignment.

While Text accepts the 'label' keyword argument, by default it is notadded to the handles of a legend.

Valid keyword arguments are:

draw(renderer)[source]#

Draw the Artist (and its children) using the given renderer.

This has no effect if the artist is not visible (Artist.get_visiblereturns False).

Parameters:
rendererRendererBase subclass.

Notes

This method is overridden in the Artist subclasses.

get_window_extent(renderer=None)[source]#

Return theBbox bounding the text, in display units.

In addition to being used internally, this is useful for specifyingclickable regions in a png file on a web page.

Parameters:
rendererRenderer, optional

A renderer is needed to compute the bounding box. If the artisthas already been drawn, the renderer is cached; thus, it is onlynecessary to pass this argument when callingget_window_extentbefore the first draw. In practice, it is usually easier totrigger a draw first, e.g. by callingdraw_without_rendering orplt.show().

dpifloat, optional

The dpi value for computing the bbox, defaults toself.get_figure(root=True).dpi (not the renderer dpi); should be sete.g. if to match regions with a figure saved with a custom dpi value.
