Matplotlib is a library in Python and it is numerical – mathematical extension for NumPy library. The Artist class contains Abstract base class for objects that render into a FigureCanvas. All visible elements in a figure are subclasses of Artist.
matplotlib.artist.Artist.get_zorder() method
The get_zorder() method in artist module of matplotlib library is used to get the artist’s zorder.
Syntax: Artist.get_zorder(self)
Parameters: This method does not accepts any parameter.
Returns: This method return the artist’s zorder.
Below examples illustrate the matplotlib.artist.Artist.get_zorder() function in matplotlib:
Example 1:
# Implementation of matplotlib function from matplotlib.artist import Artist import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt d = np.arange(100).reshape(10, 10) xx, yy = np.meshgrid(np.arange(11), np.arange(11)) fig, ax = plt.subplots() ax.set_aspect(1) ax.pcolormesh(xx, yy, d) ax.text(3, 9.5, "Zorder Value : " + str(Artist.get_zorder(ax)), fontweight ="bold") fig.suptitle('matplotlib.artist.Artist.get_zorder()\ function Example', fontweight ="bold") plt.show() |
Output:
Example 2:
# Implementation of matplotlib function from matplotlib.artist import Artist import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt xx = np.random.rand(16, 30) fig, ax = plt.subplots() ax.pcolor(xx) ax.set_zorder(-20) ax.set_title( "Zorder Value : " + str(Artist.get_zorder(ax)), fontweight ="bold") fig.suptitle('matplotlib.artist.Artist.get_zorder()\ function Example', fontweight ="bold") plt.show() |
Output:
