matplotlib.artist.Artist.set#

Artist.set(*, agg_filter=<UNSET>, alpha=<UNSET>, animated=<UNSET>, blend_mode=<UNSET>, clip_box=<UNSET>, clip_on=<UNSET>, clip_path=<UNSET>, gid=<UNSET>, in_layout=<UNSET>, label=<UNSET>, mouseover=<UNSET>, path_effects=<UNSET>, picker=<UNSET>, rasterized=<UNSET>, sketch_params=<UNSET>, snap=<UNSET>, transform=<UNSET>, url=<UNSET>, visible=<UNSET>, zorder=<UNSET>)[source]#

Set multiple properties at once.

a.set(a=A, b=B, c=C)

is equivalent to

a.set_a(A)
a.set_b(B)
a.set_c(C)

In addition to the full property names, aliases are also supported, e.g. set(lw=2) is equivalent to set(linewidth=2), but it is an error to pass both simultaneously.

The order of the individual setter calls matches the order of parameters in set(). However, most properties do not depend on each other so that order is rarely relevant.

Supported properties are

Property	Description
agg_filter	a filter function, which takes a (m, n, 3) float array and a dpi value, and returns a (m, n, 3) array and two offsets from the bottom left corner of the image
alpha	float or None
animated	bool
blend_mode	blend mode
clip_box	BboxBase or None
clip_on	bool
clip_path	Patch or (Path, Transform) or None
figure	Figure or SubFigure
gid	str
in_layout	bool
label	object
mouseover	bool
path_effects	list of AbstractPathEffect
picker	None or bool or float or callable
rasterized	bool
sketch_params	(scale: float, length: float, randomness: float)
snap	bool or None
transform	Transform
url	str
visible	bool
zorder	float
