How Do I...

Out[1]:

Show a grid¶

In [2]:

my_plot + Plot.grid()

my_plot + Plot.grid()

Label axes¶

Add an options object to your plot, putting a "label" in the options for the "x" or "y" axis:

In [3]:

my_plot + {"x": {"label": "My x axis"}, "y": {"label": False}}

my_plot + {"x": {"label": "My x axis"}, "y": {"label": False}}

Out[3]:

Hide axes¶

Pass False for an axis label (see above), or use Plot.hideAxis:

In [4]:

my_plot + Plot.hideAxis() & my_plot + Plot.hideAxis(y=True)

my_plot + Plot.hideAxis() & my_plot + Plot.hideAxis(y=True)

Assign colors to particular marks¶

• In a mark use Plot.constantly(<label>) for a color value like fill or stroke. The <label>, a string, is how you will refer to this color and it will show up in the legend.
• Then use Plot.colorMap({<label>: <color>}) to specify a color for that label.
• Include Plot.colorLegend() to show the legend. See the color page for more details.

In [5]:

(
    Plot.line(my_data, stroke=Plot.constantly("Progress"))
    + Plot.colorMap({"Progress": "orange"})
    + Plot.colorLegend()
)

( Plot.line(my_data, stroke=Plot.constantly("Progress")) + Plot.colorMap({"Progress": "orange"}) + Plot.colorLegend() )
