How to integrated plt.fill with event handling

smsawmu · April 28, 2016, 7:59am

Hi

I am trying to integrate plt.fill() function of matplotlib in GUI by using event handling (http://matplotlib.org/users/event_handling.html). The aim is to connect the Matplotlib event to a callback function and then display plots.

I would appreciate any ideas.

We would need a lot more information than that. There is no "plt.fill()"
event, so I am not sure what you are trying to do.

At the risk of boasting, I would highly recommend reading my book:

as it is probably the most comprehensive set of documentation regarding the
interactive features of matplotlib.

Let us know if you have any questions.

Hi Ben,

Book looks very interesting, I'll check it out! But, in the meantime, I
would guess that Said wants to bind a callback to clicking on the filled
area.

Hi all

Thank you for the advice.

To give you bit of a background: I am working with Kivy GUI framework and I am trying to embed figures into GUI. At the moment I successfully managed to embed the figures when I used plt.figure() as shown below example.

def my_plot(self, nap):

self.fig = plt.figure()

self.ax = self.fig.add_subplot(121)

self.connectMplEvents(self.fig)

def connectMplEvents(self, figure):

figure.canvas.mpl_connect('button_press_event', press)

figure.canvas.mpl_connect('button_release_event', release)

figure.canvas.mpl_connect('key_press_event', keypress)

figure.canvas.mpl_connect('key_release_event', keyup)

figure.canvas.mpl_connect('motion_notify_event', motionnotify)

......

I would like similar concept that would bind the filled area into a callback so it could be plotted into a designated frame (e.g. subplot(122))

Said

Chapter 2 - Page 38: "Picking"

http://matplotlib.org/users/event_handling.html#object-picking

Do keep in mind that an artist object can only be in one place
(subplot/figure/etc.). So, to draw it into a designated frame, you will
need to remake the artist within the callback. I don't know if you already
realized that or not, but it is something that has tripped up users before.

Cheers!
