pyplot.hexbin

Is there a simple way to hexbin using “pyplot.hexbin” and to return the ids of the set of

points in each hexbin? That is to output an array of n elements
(one for each hexbin), and each element itself an array with the point ids? The sum

of the number of inner elements would be equal the sum of all points (x,y).

Is hexbin missing this simple feature?

Or perhaps specifying C=N.arange(len(x)) then some specific “reduced_C_function”

to return those elements. But I don’t know if there is a “reduced_C_function” available,

or perhaps one could be added?

many thanks in advance…

Hmm, you are right, there is no way to get back the information that hexbin computed. The hexbin function is massive (in lib/matplotlib/axes/_axes.py) and is a bit tangled up with the artist-handling code, too. I think it would make sense to factor out the hexbinning component into its own hexbin.py that others might be able to use separately.

Ahhhh thats too bad (that we can’t recover the original ids.)
What could one (as user) do to officially request it be fixed/factored out to numpy?

You’ve already done it. But we encourage you to take a crack at it. I would suggest just first factoring it out into a new file lib/matplotlib/hexbin.py and have the current function utilize it. When that is done, we can look to getting it into numpy as well. We will need a copy of it ourselves for compatibility with older releases of numpy.

Let us know if you have questions!
