Hello everyone,
After working a bit on the styles, I noticed that some parameters could
not be modified using an rc or style file (for example, turning off the
right, left, up or down axis). I kind of saw how to do it using the
|Axis.spine.set_visible()| method, but it would be better to be able to
change it in the rc.
So I was wondering if there would be a way to add rcParameters using a

Maybe a method that would add rcParameters on demand…

Hi everyone,
I am trying to make a rcParameter to choose whether to display only the 
x, y or both grid orientations. The behaviour would be the same as the 
axes.grid axis input parameter, which can take ‘x’, ‘y’ or ‘both’ options.
I tried adding the behaviour in the |axes/_base.py| file, in the grid 
function. The rcParameter is actually detected, and the functions 
behaves normally, but on the plotted figure, both grids are plotted… I 
was thinking this could be related to the pyplot wrapper generated by 
the boilerplate.py, but I really am not sure. If anyone has an idea 
where this behaviour could come from…

Thank you

In my opinion, having a style file for each paper makes things more

Also, not being built-in makes you install an other package, and I 
think some people either do not want to do it, nor know how to do it.


On an other topic, I started working on some of the features you 
wanted to integrate with your PR 
https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/pull/2702. I guessed that 
when you talked about adding the |set_ticks_location| to the rcParams, 
you wanted to control whether the ticks are in or out of the axes box?


Finally, I added a |style| parameter to the rcParams. It lets you 
choose from your |matplotlibrc| which style you want to use. On top of 
that, I made it recursive, so that you can design a style directly 
from other styles.
The only thing I could not get to work was to have your style loading 
directly when importing matplotlib (when defining from your rc file). 
You actually have to import the |matplotlib.style| lib to get your rc 
defined style to load up.


I will continue working on the other features described in olga’s PR

A similar pattern with `matplotlib.style` would use chained

It would be good to have styles for paper and

ticks, labels, linewidths, other axis elements that
goes into a journal publication, while the latter with
much magnified elements to be clearly visible on a

Indeed it would be a very good idea.

You have to build and install it somewhere, where it will be found when 
you try to import it; whether you use a virtual env is up to you.  I 
managed for years without using virtual envs. Recently I've found them 
quite helpful, but a bit tricky and confusing at times.

   Hi,

 I started working on styles based on which support the figure is designed
 for (as of now, I've got 'paper', 'notebook', 'talk', 'poster').

 For those, in a style point of view, I think only the text size should be
 modified (got it done, just need to get the proper sizes for each style),
 which is unlike the 'seaborn' way of doing it. Thing is, by doing so, we
 don't mess with any style we could apply using Cascading styles.

 Also, I was thinking that I should set the export settings for each of
 those styles, but also get an export style folder (with a few good
 parameters). This would mean no more need to adjust dpi, file format,
 figure size...

 Finally, I could add a folder for specific papers, in which the figure
 parameters would be tweaked so that we can directly be in a specific paper
 format. I guess it would take into account both text size and export
 parameters for each paper.

 Let me know what you think about it.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Plotting style

2015-03-05 Thread Thomas Caswell
the rcparams are stored in a sub-class of dict which does both name and
value validation on the way in.  This is controlled by the class-level
attribute `validate` (which is a dict mapping from key-name - validation
function).  In principle you could update this dict to add rcparams on the
fly, however if the plotting functions don't know to look at the rcparams
they won't have any effect.  To add new rcparams you need to modify the
upstream code.

There is a PR to add spine-related rcparams (
https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/pull/2702) but it has not been
active in a while.

A similar pattern with `matplotlib.style` would use chained stylesheets. The
idea would be to make stylesheets either aesthetics focused or layout
focused. By aesthetics, I mean things like colors and marker shape, and by
layout, I mean things like default figure size, figure padding, font size,
etc. Then you can easily have a style that defines the general aesthetics
and easily modify it for papers, talks, etc.

Here's an example from `mpltools`, but the same syntax applies to the
`style` module in `matplotlib`:

a full-page layout.)

It would be good to have styles for paper and presentation modes. The
former would have smaller ticks, labels, linewidths, other axis elements
that goes into a journal publication, while the latter with much magnified
elements to be clearly visible on a screen from the back of a room.

Indeed it would be a very good idea.
I've seen that already in the seaborn lib I guess.

Hi,

I started working on styles based on which support the figure is designed
for (as of now, I've got 'paper', 'notebook', 'talk', 'poster').

For those, in a style point of view, I think only the text size should be
modified (got it done, just need to get the proper sizes for each style),

That repo should probably be folded together with Tony Yu's style gallery
code and eventually be migrated to live under the main matplotlib
organization.

I would also advocate for adding a bit of code into that repo to make it
importable and to register all/some of it's style files with the
USER_LIBRARY_PATHS attribute in mpl.style.core so that these things 'just
work' by name if you import `mpl_styles` (ex `style.use('journals.pre')`
would enable the styles for Physical Review E).

It would be good to have styles for paper and presentation modes. The
former would have smaller ticks, labels, linewidths, other axis elements
that goes into a journal publication, while the latter with much magnified
elements to be clearly visible on a screen from the back of a room.

Indeed it would be a very good idea.
I've seen that already in the seaborn lib I guess.

Hi,

I started working on styles based on which support the figure is designed
for (as of now, I've got 'paper', 'notebook', 'talk', 'poster').

For those, in a style point of view, I think only the text size should be
modified (got it done, just need to get the proper sizes for each style),
which is unlike the 'seaborn' way of doing it. Thing is, by doing so, we
don't mess with any style we could apply using Cascading styles.

Also, I was thinking that I should set the export settings for

 Thanks
 Marin Gilles


 Any stylesheet could easily be integrated afterwards, but the separate
repo would allow faster releases, as Thomas suggests above, and also more
experimentation. It would probably make sense to integrate just the cream
of the crop from the style repo into Matplotlib-proper, but it'd still be
easy to use the less popular ones. For example, you wouldn't even have to
install the style repo---you can pass a url to `matplotlib.style.use`.

 The separate repo could also incorporate a default comparison page to
quickly decide on the most appropriate stylesheet; e.g.:

 https://github.com/tonysyu/matplotlib-style-gallery

 -Tony



Another advantage of a separate repo is that it would make it easier for
multiple projects to participate. The process could be set up so that
projects like seaborn, ggplot, and prettyplotlib could keep their
stylesheets in the same project,  and have the stylesheets project have a
release whenever any project needs to update stylesheets. Using a master
is always stable development model would make that easier.

[Matplotlib-users] Plotting style

2015-03-03 Thread Marin GILLES

Hello everyone,

I was wondering if there would be some kind of plot style profile interface.
What I mean, is that you could have mutliple files with different styles 
for plots, that would be used to change easily the style of plots.


I know about the |matplotlibrc| but I am thinking of something a little 
bit more flexible, which could swicth between multiple “style sheets” 
easily.


As an example, for now I use the Seaborn 
http://stanford.edu/%7Emwaskom/software/seaborn/index.html |set_style| 
http://stanford.edu/%7Emwaskom/software/seaborn/tutorial/aesthetics.html#styling-figures-with-axes-style-and-set-style 
capabilities to get better looking graphs.
I previously used Prettyplotlib 
https://github.com/olgabot/prettyplotlib to make better plots.


But with those two libraries, it does not seem to me that you can 
control your graph settings with, for example, a config file.


Thank you

​

are defined in a config-like style.
It is possible to create your own styles and put it in your config path 
so they are accessible (Style on matplotlib.org

I certainly think it would be beneficial to have more available styles. It
certainly would help exercise this particular aspect of matplotlib.

One caveat from past submissions. Please do not include
copyrighted/trademarked styles. So, no matlab style or mathmatica
style, etc...

It may be worth making a 'matplotlib-styles' project which is _just_ a

2015-03-03 Thread Thomas Caswell
I was thinking of the stand alone repository to just  store the style files
as the style module handles the loading pretty well.

The main motivation for this would be to decouple the release cycle of the
styles (which can be very fast) from the library (which needs to be slower).

  It would be good to have styles for paper and presentation modes.
 The former would have smaller ticks, labels, linewidths, other axis
 elements that goes into a journal publication, while the latter with much
 magnified elements to be clearly visible on a screen from the back of a
 room.

 Indeed it would be a very good idea.
 I've seen that already in the seaborn lib I guess.

 Apperantly he scales each parameter to get modified views. This would be a
 good addition for any of the styles available in matplotlib.


A similar pattern with `matplotlib.style` would use chained stylesheets.
The idea would be to make stylesheets either aesthetics focused or layout
focused. By aesthetics, I mean things like colors and marker shape, and by
layout, I mean things like default figure size, figure padding, font size,
etc. Then you can easily have a style that defines the general aesthetics
and easily modify it for papers, talks, etc.

Here's an example from `mpltools`, but the same syntax applies to the
`style` module in `matplotlib`:

http://tonysyu.github.io/mpltools/auto_examples/style/plot_multiple_styles.html

(PoF = Physics of Fluids journal; IIRC I think I have some personal
stylesheets that take the normal two-column figure layout and convert it to
a full-page layout.)

 Maybe a dumb question, but I'm quite new to this...
 Can this be integrated in mpl afterwards? Or does it needs to be a
 standalone package that you install on its own?
 If it can be integrated, how?
 Thanks
 Marin Gilles


Any stylesheet could easily be integrated afterwards, but the separate repo
would allow faster releases, as Thomas suggests above, and also more
experimentation. It would probably make sense to integrate just the cream
of the crop from the style repo into Matplotlib-proper, but it'd still be
easy to use the less popular ones. For example, you wouldn't even have to
install the style repo---you can pass a url to `matplotlib.style.use`.

The separate repo could also incorporate a default comparison page to
quickly decide on the most appropriate stylesheet; e.g.:

https://github.com/tonysyu/matplotlib-style-gallery

Yes, we are interested it more built-in themes.

It may be worth making a 'matplotlib-styles' project which is _just_ a 
style library.

Hello everyone,

I was wondering if there would be some kind of plot style profile interface.
What I mean, is that you could have mutliple files with different styles for
plots, that would be used to change easily the style of plots.

I know about the matplotlibrc but I am thinking of something a little bit
more flexible, which could swicth between multiple “style sheets” easily.

As an example, for now I use the Seaborn set_style capabilities to get
better looking graphs.
I previously used Prettyplotlib to make better plots.

But with those two libraries, it does not seem to me that you can control
your graph settings with, for example, a config file.

Thank you

Hi Christian,
I saw them indeed.
After looking into it in more details, it seems that the default
styles are defined in a config-like style.
It is possible to create your own styles and put it in your config
path so they are accessible (Style on matplotlib.org
http://matplotlib.org/users/style_sheets.html?highlight=style).

Also, Would the community be interested in more integrated themes?

Thanks for your help

When you say *style library*, I’m not sure exactly what you mean…
It would be just more stylesheets, or a full python lib to manage the 
styles?
The latter would be the most interesting for me (as that is what I had 
in mind when starting this thread), but after digging in mpl, it seemed 
that the actual style management system is quite good… Unless there is 
some caveat I am not aware of.

In that case, could you point out what you have in mind (if anything)?
