Bases: Grid

Parameters:
figFigure

The parent figure.

rect(float, float, float, float) or int

The axes position, as a (left, bottom, width, height) tuple or as a three-digit subplot position code (e.g., "121").

nrows_ncols(int, int)

Number of rows and columns in the grid.

ngridsint or None, default: None

If not None, only the first ngrids axes in the grid are created.

direction{"row", "column"}, default: "row"

Whether axes are created in row-major ("row by row") or column-major order ("column by column"). This also affects the order in which axes are accessed using indexing (grid[index]).

axes_padfloat or (float, float), default: 0.02

Padding or (horizontal padding, vertical padding) between axes, in inches.

share_allbool, default: False

Whether all axes share their x- and y-axis. Overrides share_x and share_y.

share_xbool, default: True

Whether all axes of a column share their x-axis.

share_ybool, default: True

Whether all axes of a row share their y-axis.

label_mode{"L", "1", "all"}, default: "L"

Determines which axes will get tick labels:

  • "L": All axes on the left column get vertical tick labels; all axes on the bottom row get horizontal tick labels.

  • "1": Only the bottom left axes is labelled.

  • "all": all axes are labelled.

axes_classsubclass of matplotlib.axes.Axes, default: None
aspectbool, default: False

Whether the axes aspect ratio follows the aspect ratio of the data limits.
