matplotlib.patches.ConnectionStyle   classmatplotlib.patches.ConnectionStyle(stylename, **kw)[source]
 
Bases: matplotlib.patches._Style ConnectionStyle is a container class which defines several connectionstyle classes, which is used to create a path between two points. These are mainly used with FancyArrowPatch. A connectionstyle object can be either created as: ConnectionStyle.Arc3(rad=0.2)
 or: ConnectionStyle("Arc3", rad=0.2)
 or: ConnectionStyle("Arc3, rad=0.2")
 The following classes are defined   
Class Name Attrs   
Arc3 arc3 rad=0.0  
Angle3 angle3 angleA=90, angleB=0  
Angle angle angleA=90, angleB=0, rad=0.0  
Arc arc angleA=0, angleB=0, armA=None, armB=None, rad=0.0  
Bar bar armA=0.0, armB=0.0, fraction=0.3, angle=None   An instance of any connection style class is an callable object, whose call signature is: __call__(self, posA, posB,
         patchA=None, patchB=None,
         shrinkA=2., shrinkB=2.)
 and it returns a Path instance. posA and posB are tuples of (x, y) coordinates of the two points to be connected. patchA (or patchB) is given, the returned path is clipped so that it start (or end) from the boundary of the patch. The path is further shrunk by shrinkA (or shrinkB) which is given in points. Return the instance of the subclass with the given style name.   classAngle(angleA=90, angleB=0, rad=0.0)[source]
 
Bases: matplotlib.patches.ConnectionStyle._Base Creates a piecewise continuous quadratic Bezier path between two points. The path has a one passing-through point placed at the intersecting point of two lines which cross the start and end point, and have a slope of angleA and angleB, respectively. The connecting edges are rounded with rad.  angleA

starting angle of the path  angleB

ending angle of the path  rad

rounding radius of the edge     connect(posA, posB)[source]

 
   classAngle3(angleA=90, angleB=0)[source]
 
Bases: matplotlib.patches.ConnectionStyle._Base Creates a simple quadratic Bezier curve between two points. The middle control points is placed at the intersecting point of two lines which cross the start and end point, and have a slope of angleA and angleB, respectively.  angleA

starting angle of the path  angleB

ending angle of the path     connect(posA, posB)[source]

 
   classArc(angleA=0, angleB=0, armA=None, armB=None, rad=0.0)[source]
 
Bases: matplotlib.patches.ConnectionStyle._Base Creates a piecewise continuous quadratic Bezier path between two points. The path can have two passing-through points, a point placed at the distance of armA and angle of angleA from point A, another point with respect to point B. The edges are rounded with rad.  
angleA :

starting angle of the path  
angleB :

ending angle of the path  
armA :

length of the starting arm  
armB :

length of the ending arm  
rad :

rounding radius of the edges     connect(posA, posB)[source]

 
   classArc3(rad=0.0)[source]
 
Bases: matplotlib.patches.ConnectionStyle._Base Creates a simple quadratic Bezier curve between two points. The curve is created so that the middle control point (C1) is located at the same distance from the start (C0) and end points(C2) and the distance of the C1 to the line connecting C0-C2 is rad times the distance of C0-C2.  rad

curvature of the curve.     connect(posA, posB)[source]

 
   classBar(armA=0.0, armB=0.0, fraction=0.3, angle=None)[source]
 
Bases: matplotlib.patches.ConnectionStyle._Base A line with angle between A and B with armA and armB. One of the arms is extended so that they are connected in a right angle. The length of armA is determined by (armA + fraction x AB distance). Same for armB.  Parameters 
 
armAfloat


minimum length of armA  
armBfloat


minimum length of armB  
fractionfloat


a fraction of the distance between two points that will be added to armA and armB.  
anglefloat or None


angle of the connecting line (if None, parallel to A and B)       connect(posA, posB)[source]
