matplotlib.artist.Artist.set_figure#

Artist.set_figure(fig)[source]#

Set the Figure or SubFigure instance the artist belongs to.

Warning

This function should typically not be called by users.

This is a low-level API and only modifies the internal state of the Artist. Only modifying this is not enough and will typically lead to an inconsistent state, because the state of the figure has to be changed as well.

Users should typically instead call one of the high-level APIs, i.e. Figure.add_artist or one of the Axes methods Adding artists.

Parameters:

figFigure or SubFigure
