0 0 1 minute read

Matplotlib is a library in Python and it is numerical – mathematical extension for NumPy library. The Axes Class contains most of the figure elements: Axis, Tick, Line2D, Text, Polygon, etc., and sets the coordinate system. And the instances of Axes supports callbacks through a callbacks attribute.

matplotlib.axes.Axes.set_url() Function

The Axes.set_url() function in axes module of matplotlib library is used to set the url for the artist.

Syntax: Axes.set_url(self, url)

Parameters: This method accepts only one parameters.

url : This parameter is the string containing the url.

Returns: This method does not return any value.

Below examples illustrate the matplotlib.axes.Axes.set_url() function in matplotlib.axes:

Example 1:

# Implementation of matplotlib function   
import numpy as np 
import matplotlib.cm as cm 
import matplotlib.mlab as mlab 
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt 
  
f, ax = plt.subplots() 
s = ax.scatter([1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]) 
s.set_url('http://www.google.com') 
f.canvas.print_figure('scatter.svg') 
   
f.suptitle('matplotlib.axes.Axes.set_url() function\ 
 Example\n', fontweight ="bold") 
  
plt.show() 

Output:

Example-2:

# Implementation of matplotlib function   
import numpy as np 
import matplotlib.cm as cm 
import matplotlib.mlab as mlab 
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt 
  
f, ax = plt.subplots() 
delta = 0.025
x = y = np.arange(-3.0, 3.0, delta) 
X, Y = np.meshgrid(x, y) 
Z1 = np.exp(-X**2 - Y**2) 
Z2 = np.exp(-(X - 1)**2 - (Y - 1)**2) 
Z = (Z1 - Z2) * 2
  
im = ax.imshow(Z, interpolation ='bilinear', 
               cmap = cm.gray, 
               origin ='lower',  
               extent =[-3, 3, -3, 3]) 
  
im.set_url('https://www.zambiatek.com/') 
f.savefig('image.svg') 
   
f.suptitle('matplotlib.axes.Axes.set_url() function \ 
Example\n', fontweight ="bold") 
  
plt.show()
