matplotlib 3.5.1

ParametersBackRef
set_bbox_to_anchor(self, bbox, transform=None)

Parameters

bbox : `~matplotlib.transforms.BboxBase` or tuple

The bounding box can be specified in the following ways:

  • A .BboxBase instance

  • A tuple of (left, bottom, width, height) in the given transform (normalized axes coordinate if None)

  • A tuple of (left, bottom) where the width and height will be assumed to be zero.

  • None, to remove the bbox anchoring, and use the parent bbox.

transform : `~matplotlib.transforms.Transform`, optional

A transform to apply to the bounding box. If not specified, this will use a transform to the bounding box of the parent.

Set the bbox that the legend will be anchored to.

Local connectivity graph

Hover to see nodes names; edges to Self not shown, Caped at 50 nodes.

Using a canvas is more power efficient and can get hundred of nodes ; but does not allow hyperlinks; , arrows or text (beyond on hover)

SVG is more flexible but power hungry; and does not scale well to 50 + nodes.

All aboves nodes referred to, (or are referred from) current nodes; Edges from Self to other have been omitted (or all nodes would be connected to the central node "self" which is not useful). Nodes are colored by the library they belong to, and scaled with the number of references pointing them
