mpl_toolkits.mplot3d.axes3d.Axes3D.set_xlim#
- Axes3D.set_xlim(left=None,right=None,*,emit=True,auto=False,view_margin=None,xmin=None,xmax=None)[source]#
Set the 3D x-axis view limits.
- Parameters:
- leftfloat, optional
The left xlim in data coordinates. PassingNone leaves thelimit unchanged.
The left and right xlims may also be passed as the tuple(left,right) as the first positional argument (or astheleft keyword argument).
- rightfloat, optional
The right xlim in data coordinates. PassingNone leaves thelimit unchanged.
- emitbool, default: True
Whether to notify observers of limit change.
- autobool or None, default: False
Whether to turn on autoscaling of the x-axis.True turns on,False turns off,None leaves unchanged.
- view_marginfloat, optional
The additional margin to apply to the limits.
- xmin, xmaxfloat, optional
They are equivalent to left and right respectively, and it is anerror to pass bothxmin andleft orxmax andright.
- Returns:
- left, right(float, float)
The new x-axis limits in data coordinates.
Notes
Theleft value may be greater than theright value, in whichcase the x-axis values will decrease fromleft toright.
Examples
>>>set_xlim(left,right)>>>set_xlim((left,right))>>>left,right=set_xlim(left,right)
One limit may be left unchanged.
>>>set_xlim(right=right_lim)
Limits may be passed in reverse order to flip the direction ofthe x-axis. For example, suppose
x
represents depth of theocean in m. The x-axis limits might be set like the followingso 5000 m depth is at the left of the plot and the surface,0 m, is at the right.>>>set_xlim(5000,0)
