---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
There is a lot of inconsistency between the methods in `Graphics` class.
Is there any reason to not have the methods be better named? The old
method names could be still kept around for backward compatibility.
0. {{{old_method -> new method(s)}}}
1. {{{aspect_ratio -> get_aspect_ratio}}}
2. {{{axes* -> get_axes*, set_axes*}}}
3. {{{fontsize -> get_fontsize, set_fontsize}}}
4. {{{-> set_minmax_data}}}
5. `legend -> set_legend, get_legend`
6. `-> get_legend_options`
7. `tick_label_color -> set_tick_label_color, get_tick_label_color`
8. `xmax/xmin/ymax/ymin -> get/set_xmax/xmin/ymax/ymin`
The following methods are good:
1. `get/set_aspect_ratio`
2. `get/set_axes_range`
3. `set_legend_options`
