[Matplotlib-users] Annotate with icon
Hi all, Is there any way to annotate a plot with icons? The only way to include an image that I've found is using imshow, but imshow does not accept (x,y) coordinates. There probably is an easy solution, but I have not been able to find any.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Include icon in plot
Hi JJ, Thank you for your kind and speedy reply, I completely glanced over the extent parameter. Datacoords are actually what I need so this is perfect for me. To clarify what I want, I want to mark certain parts of a graph with an icon representing the reason it's interesting. Icons are for peaks, trends, correlation, etc. Thank you very much!

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Include icon in plot
Hello,
I tried to implement a solution for this issue. Basically I want to
give the x and y position in datacoords and the width + height in
pixels.
However, when using the following code:
im = Image.open("../Icons/Program Icon.png")
limx = self.mainAxes.get_xlim()
limy = self.mainAxes.get_ylim()
[x0, y0], [x1, y1] = self.mainAxes.bbox.get_points()
datawidth = limx[1] - limx[0]
dataheight = limy[1] - limy[0]
pixelwidth = x1 - x0
pixelheight = y1 - y0
adaptedwidth = im.size[0] * (datawidth/pixelwidth)
adaptedheight = im.size[1] * (dataheight/pixelheight)
for peak in Blocks.peaks(self.quote.Close,
self.peakSpanSlider.value()):
self.mainAxes.imshow(im, origin = 'lower', extent =
(date2num(peak.datetime), date2num(peak.datetime) + 100 , 400, 425)) #
left right bottom top
self.mainAxes.set_xlim(limx)
self.mainAxes.set_ylim(limy)
There is no visible result. When zooming in to a place where an image
should be present I encounter the following error every time I move
the mouse.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python25\lib\site-packages\matplotlib\backends\backend_qt4.py",

in make_image
rx = widthDisplay / numcols
ZeroDivisionError: float division
Any idea what might cause this issue? Did I do something wrong? I know
it's not pretty, but it should work right?
Cheers!
Bas

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Include icon in plot
Hi,
Sorry about the snippet, I will privide working code from now on.
I found a reproduction path for the error, it occurs (seemingly
random, but frequent) when there is more than one image in the plot
and you try to zoom. Code:
import Image
from pylab import *
im = Image.open("icon.png")
ax = subplot(111)
limx = ax.set_xlim((-5, 15))
limy = ax.set_ylim((-5, 15))
ax.set_autoscale_on(False)
[x0, y0], [x1, y1] = ax.bbox.get_points()
datawidth = limx[1] - limx[0]
dataheight = limy[1] - limy[0]
pixelwidth = x1 - x0
pixelheight = y1 - y0
adaptedwidth = im.size[0] * (datawidth / pixelwidth)
adaptedheight = im.size[1] * (dataheight / pixelheight)
for i in range(0,10,2):
ax.imshow(im, origin="lower",
extent=(i, i + adaptedwidth, i, i + adaptedheight))
plt.draw()
show()
Thank you very much for the support!
Bas
PS, @John, I'd like to try the imshow approach first because it is not
in a figure but in a QT frame containing several subplots. But thank
youfor the suggestion, I will try if the imshow approach appears
fruitless.
