matplotview.inset_zoom_axes

matplotview.inset_zoom_axes(axes: Axes, bounds: Iterable, *, image_interpolation: str = 'nearest', render_depth: int | None = None, filter_set: Iterable[Type[Artist] | Artist] | None = None, scale_lines: bool = True, transform: Transform = None, zorder: int = 5, **kwargs) → Axes

Add a child inset Axes to an Axes, which automatically plots artists contained within the parent Axes.

Parameters:

axes: Axes

The axes to insert a new inset zoom axes inside.

bounds: [x0, y0, width, height]

Lower-left corner of inset Axes, and its width and height.

transform: `.Transform`

Defaults to ax.transAxes, i.e. the units of rect are in Axes-relative coordinates.

zorder: number

Defaults to 5 (same as .Axes.legend). Adjust higher or lower to change whether it is above or below data plotted on the parent Axes.

image_interpolation: string

Supported options are ‘antialiased’, ‘none’, ‘nearest’, ‘bilinear’, ‘bicubic’, ‘spline16’, ‘spline36’, ‘hanning’, ‘hamming’, ‘hermite’, ‘kaiser’, ‘quadric’, ‘catrom’, ‘gaussian’, ‘bessel’, ‘mitchell’, ‘sinc’, ‘lanczos’, or ‘blackman’. The default value is ‘nearest’. This determines the interpolation used when attempting to render a zoomed version of an image.

render_depth: optional int, positive, defaults to None

The number of recursive draws allowed for this view, this can happen if the view is a child of the axes (such as an inset axes) or if two views point at each other. If None, uses the default render depth of 5, unless the axes passed is already a view axes, in which case the render depth the view already has will be used.

filter_set: Iterable[Union[Type[Artist], Artist]] or None

An optional filter set, which can be used to select what artists are drawn by the view. Any artists or artist types in the set are not drawn.

scale_lines: bool, defaults to True

Specifies if lines should be drawn thicker based on scaling in the view.

**kwargs

Other keyword arguments are passed on to the child .Axes.

Returns:

ax

The created ~.axes.Axes instance.
