contains_points(self, points, radius=None)

Notes

The proper use of this method depends on the transform of the patch. See the notes on .Patch.contains_point .

Parameters

points : (N, 2) array

The points to check, in target coordinates of self.get_transform() . These are display coordinates for patches that are added to a figure or axes. Columns contain x and y values.

radius : float, optional

Add an additional margin on the patch in target coordinates of self.get_transform() . See .Path.contains_point for further details.

Returns

length-N bool array

Return whether the given points are inside the patch.

Examples

See :

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
