Matplotlib.axes.Axes.get_navigate_mode() in Python

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.get_navigate_mode() Function

The Axes.get_navigate_mode() Function in axes module of matplotlib library is used to get the navigation toolbar button status: ‘PAN’, ‘ZOOM’, or None.

Syntax: Axes.get_navigate_mode(self)

Parameters: This method does not accept any parameters.

Return value: This method returns navigation mode.

Below examples illustrate the matplotlib.axes.Axes.get_navigate_mode() function in matplotlib.axes:
Example 1:

# Implementation of matplotlib function 
import matplotlib 
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt 
import numpy as np 
    
t = np.arange(0.0, 2, 0.001) 
s = 1 + np.sin(8 * np.pi * t)*0.4
    
fig, ax = plt.subplots() 
ax.plot(t, s) 
  
w = ax.get_navigate_mode() 
  
ax.text(0.5, 1.43, "Navigate Mode : " + str(w),  
        fontweight ="bold") 
  
ax.set(xlabel ='X-Axis', ylabel ='Y-Axis', 
       xlim =(0, 1.5), ylim =(0.5, 1.5)) 
  
ax.set_title('matplotlib.axes.Axes.get_navigate_mode()\ 
 function Example', fontweight ="bold") 
  
ax.grid() 
plt.show() 

Output:

Example 2:

# Implementation of matplotlib function 
import numpy as np 
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt 
np.random.seed(19680801) 
   
fig, ax = plt.subplots() 
   
x, y, s, c = np.random.rand(4, 200) 
s *= 200
   
ax.scatter(x, y, s, c) 
ax.set_navigate_mode("ZOOM") 
w = ax.get_navigate_mode() 
  
ax.text(0.3, .65, "Navigate Mode : " + str(w),  
        fontweight ="bold") 
  
ax.set_title('matplotlib.axes.Axes.get_navigate_mode()\ 
 function Example', fontweight ="bold") 
  
ax.grid() 
plt.show()
