any pointers on how to deprecate a class property? @deprecated works for properties, but not being able to call it using the class scope would technically be a change of API? and _deprecate_privatize_attribute seems to make it a property under the hood, which has the same issue

Bruno Beltran

@brunobeltran

tl;dr: if I do this

class Line2D(...):
    _validJoin = ('miter', 'round', 'bevel') 
    validJoin = _deprecate_privatize_attribute('3.4.0')

Then this no longer works

>>> Line2D.validJoin

I think combining cbook.classproperty and deprecated can be made to work relatively easily

(untested)

I guess it's just a matter, in the implementation of deprecated, of replacing if isinstance(obj, property) by isinstance(obj, (property, classproperty)), and of changing the base class of _deprecated_property from property to type(obj)

Bruno Beltran

@brunobeltran

This is 99% of the way there, thanks @anntzer!

Anyone has any idea why animation is not working in Colab?
MWE:

fig, ax = plt.subplots()

x = np.arange(0, 2*np.pi, 0.01)
line, = ax.plot(x, np.sin(x))

def init():  # only required for blitting to give a clean slate.
    line.set_ydata([np.nan] * len(x))
    return line,

def animate(i):
    line.set_ydata(np.sin(x + i / 100))  # update the data.
    return line,

ani = animation.FuncAnimation(
    fig, animate, init_func=init, interval=2, blit=True, save_count=50)

plt.show()

I've tried using the notebook backend but to no avail. The only way I could get a plot was using rc('animation', html='jshtml') and HTML(ani.to_jshtml()). But, it produces two plots and one of them requires pressing the play button which is something I don't want. I need a plot to live update. How to achieve that?

This is what I get with HTML(ani.to_jshtml())

you can remove the first image by moving

ani = animation.FuncAnimation(
    fig, animate, init_func=init, interval=2, blit=True, save_count=50)

into a new cell, and putting %%capture at the top of the first one

@QuLogic I guess I don't understand how to run our benchmarks.... https://github.com/matplotlib/mpl-bench

Jody Klymak

@jklymak

ok. I figured it out I think: asv

Elliott Sales de Andrade

@QuLogic

Yea, I should write a readme...

You need airspeed-velocity, and then can do asv dev to test out a benchmark

Jody Klymak

@jklymak

I did asv.run but it didn't pick up the new file. Trying asv dev

Is there somewhere I need to tell it what files to look in? I made a new benchmarks/dates.py file...

Elliott Sales de Andrade

@QuLogic

The function should be named time_*, but I don't think there are any requirements for file names

Jody Klymak

@jklymak

Hmm, I stuck it in a class. Could move it up a level

Oh, duh I didn't name then time_

That works. Thanks!

See also https://asv.readthedocs.io/en/stable/writing_benchmarks.html if you haven't found that already

There are a couple of PRs there now...

danuo

@danuo

I want to render text with ax.text() outside of the axis and it shall not effect the spacing of constrained_layout=True . How would I make ax.text invisible to spacing calculation?

Jody Klymak

@jklymak

t=ax.text(); t.set_in_layout(False)

Or t = fig.text()?

danuo

@danuo

awesome, thank you!

@jklymak do you know the answer here https://twitter.com/nicolaskruchten/status/1318887800796778496?s=19 - I think the answer is if users provide timestamps that incorporate est/day, that's what gets plotted - but wanted to confirm.

We have had some bug reports on this, I think that if you give us timezone aware data we "do the right thing"

Jody Klymak

@jklymak

We have a whole test for this, but I didn't see too many good examples: def test_date2num_dst()

Also def _test_date2num_dst (for some reason...)

Hi, I'm building a figure and want to change the font on the axis and secondary axis, what's the best way to do that?

I've seen the below

        plt.yticks(fontproperties=self.font_property)

But I'm not a fan because 1) it uses pyplot instead of my figure, and 2) it only does the primary axis or the secondary axis depending on calling order (probably can do both if I call it before and after .twinx())

Gilles Jacobs

@gillesjac_twitter

Also, unrelated;

How does zorder magic work? I have some lines (zorder 2) on the primary axis (zorder 0.1), and a polycollection (zorder 1) on the secondary axis (zorder 0); my primary axis has gridlines. If I set those gridlines (ax.yaxis.get_gridlines()) to zorder 0.1 they are still on top of my poly; do I have to set some other attribute?

Jody Klymak

@jklymak

@gillesjac_twitter This is probably best discussed on discourse.matplotlib.org where you can show some code. However if by "secondary axis" you mean a twinned axes, the axes are drawn in the order in which they are added to the figure, and the z-order is on a per-axes basis

Gilles Jacobs

@gillesjac_twitter

Yeah it's a .twinx()'d one; is there any way to work around this restriction? I could transform the data from my secondary axis to the domain of the first, and plot it on the first, but I'd rather avoid such an approach

As for posting code, trying to decude a minimum example. It also doesn't help that I'm stuck (due to constraints) on an older version of matplotlib (1.5)

Actually now that I think of it, I could work around it by using a line-locator tied to my primary axis, on my secondary axis, and plotting the primary axis in front of the secondary one

If I might second the request to look at #18657; I'd prefer not to add more deprecations that need re-importing/renaming...

Yeah, a todo on the issue is to go through and put PRs on those projects...the ones that are even still maintained (which keeping track of status is what motivated the classifier)
