__init__(self, rows=1, cols=0, title='', size=(8, 6), buffering=False)
(Constructor)

Create a new instance of the ASAPlot plotting class.

clear(self)

delete(self, numbers=None)

get_line(self)

hist(self, x=None, y=None, fmt=None, add=None)

Plot a histogram. N.B. the x values refer to the start of the histogram bin.

hold(self, hold=True)

legend(self, loc=None)

Add a legend to the plot.

Any other value for loc else disables the legend:
     1: upper right
     2: upper left
     3: lower left
     4: lower right
     5: right
     6: center left
     7: center right
     8: lower center
     9: upper center
    10: center

plot(self, x=None, y=None, fmt=None, add=None)

Plot the next line in the current frame using the current line attributes. The ASAPlot graphics window will be mapped and raised.

position(self)

region(self)

Use the mouse to get a rectangular region from a plot.

register(self, type=None, func=None)

Register, reregister, or deregister events of type 'button_press',
'button_release', or 'motion_notify'.

The specified callback function should have the following signature:

    def func(event)

where event is an MplEvent instance containing the following data:

    name                # Event name.
    canvas              # FigureCanvas instance generating the event.
    x      = None       # x position - pixels from left of canvas.
    y      = None       # y position - pixels from bottom of canvas.
    button = None       # Button pressed: None, 1, 2, 3.
    key    = None       # Key pressed: None, chr(range(255)), shift,
                          win, or control
    inaxes = None       # Axes instance if cursor within axes.
    xdata  = None       # x world coordinate.
    ydata  = None       # y world coordinate.

For example:

    def mouse_move(event):
        print event.xdata, event.ydata

    a = asaplot()
    a.register('motion_notify', mouse_move)

If func is None, the event is deregistered.

Note that in TkAgg keyboard button presses don't generate an event.

release(self)

save(self, fname=None, orientation=None, dpi=None, papertype=None)

Save the plot to a file.

set_axes(self, what=None, *args, **kwargs)

set_figure(self, what=None, *args, **kwargs)

set_limits(self, xlim=None, ylim=None)

Set x-, and y-limits for each subplot.

set_line(self, number=None, **kwargs)

Set attributes for the specified line, or else the next line(s)
to be plotted.

number is the 0-relative number of a line that has already been
plotted.  If no such line exists, attributes are recorded and used
for the next line(s) to be plotted.

Keyword arguments specify Line2D attributes, e.g. color='r'.  Do

    import matplotlib
    help(matplotlib.lines)

The set_* methods of class Line2D define the attribute names and
values.  For non-US usage, "colour" is recognized as synonymous with
"color".

Set the value to None to delete an attribute.

Colour translation is done as described in the doctext for palette().

set_panels(self, rows=1, cols=0, n=-1, nplots=-1, ganged=True)

Set the panel layout.

rows and cols, if cols != 0, specify the number of rows and columns in a regular layout. (Indexing of these panels in matplotlib is row- major, i.e. column varies fastest.)

cols == 0 is interpreted as a retangular layout that accomodates 'rows' panels, e.g. rows == 6, cols == 0 is equivalent to rows == 2, cols == 3.

set_title(self, title=None)

show(self, hardrefresh=True)

subplot(self, i=None, inc=None)

text(self, *args, **kwargs)

vline_with_label(self, x, y, label, location='bottom', rotate=0.0, **kwargs)
