vispipe.plot_backend.MPL_Figure.tricontour

MPL_Figure.tricontour(vals, *meshdata, bbox=None, fill=True, limits=None, levels=101, empty_value=None, ax=None, **triconkwargs)

Calls ax.tricontour() or ax.tricontourf().

Parameters:

• vals (ndarray) – Array containing data to be plotted.

• *meshdata (triangulation | np.ndarray,np.ndarray) – matplotlib triangulation of the grid or raw nodes and elemcomps.

• bbox (tuple[float, float, float, float] | None) – typing.Iterable containing x0,y0,x1,y1 where point 0 is the bottem left and point 1 is the top right of the bounding box.

• fill (bool) – If True, tricontourf is called. If False, tricontour is called.

• limits (tuple[float, float] | None) – A list of the lower and upper values of the contour.

• levels (int) – The number of countor levels that will be generated.

• empty_value (float | None, optional) – Value that will be masked out before the plot.

• ax (Axes | None) – Axes to plot onto. If None self.gca() is called.

• **triconkwargs – Keyword arguments passed to ax.tricontour() or ax.tricontourf().

Return type:

TriContourSet

Returns:

Triangulated contour set.
