38 | 38 | The Locator subclasses defined here are |
39 | 39 |
|
40 | | -:class:`NullLocator` |
41 | | - No ticks. |
| 40 | +:class:`AutoLocator` |
| 41 | + `MaxNLocator` with simple defaults. This is the default tick locator for |
| 42 | + most plotting. |
| 43 | +
|
| 44 | +:class:`MaxNLocator` |
| 45 | + Finds up to a max number of intervals with ticks at nice locations. |
| 46 | +
|
| 47 | +:class:`LinearLocator` |
| 48 | + Spaced ticks evenly from min to max. |
| 49 | +
|
| 50 | +:class:`LogLocator` |
| 51 | + Space ticks logarithmically from min to max. |
| 52 | +
|
| 53 | +:class:`MultipleLocator` |
| 54 | + Ticks and range are a multiple of base; either integer or float. |
42 | 55 |
|
43 | 56 | :class:`FixedLocator` |
44 | 57 | Tick locations are fixed. |
45 | 58 |
|
46 | 59 | :class:`IndexLocator` |
47 | 60 | Locator for index plots (e.g., where ``x = range(len(y))``). |
48 | 61 |
|
49 | | -:class:`LinearLocator` |
50 | | - Evenly spaced ticks from min to max. |
51 | | -
|
52 | | -:class:`LogLocator` |
53 | | - Logarithmically ticks from min to max. |
| 62 | +:class:`NullLocator` |
| 63 | + No ticks. |
54 | 64 |
|
55 | 65 | :class:`SymmetricalLogLocator` |
56 | 66 | Locator for use with with the symlog norm; works like `LogLocator` for the |
57 | | - part outside of the threshold and add 0 if inside the limits. |
| 67 | + part outside of the threshold and adds 0 if inside the limits. |
58 | 68 |
|
59 | | -:class:`MultipleLocator` |
60 | | - Ticks and range are a multiple of base; either integer or float. |
| 69 | +:class:`LogitLocator` |
| 70 | + Locator for logit scaling. |
61 | 71 |
|
62 | 72 | :class:`OldAutoLocator` |
63 | | - Choose a `MultipleLocator` and dyamically reassign it for intelligent |
| 73 | + Choose a `MultipleLocator` and dynamically reassign it for intelligent |
64 | 74 | ticking during navigation. |
65 | 75 |
|
66 | | -:class:`MaxNLocator` |
67 | | - Finds up to a max number of ticks at nice locations. |
68 | | -
|
69 | | -:class:`AutoLocator` |
70 | | - `MaxNLocator` with simple defaults. This is the default tick locator for |
71 | | - most plotting. |
72 | | -
|
73 | 76 | :class:`AutoMinorLocator` |
74 | 77 | Locator for minor ticks when the axis is linear and the |
75 | 78 | major ticks are uniformly spaced. Subdivides the major |
76 | 79 | tick interval into a specified number of minor intervals, |
77 | 80 | defaulting to 4 or 5 depending on the major interval. |
78 | 81 |
|
79 | | -:class:`LogitLocator` |
80 | | - Locator for logit scaling. |
81 | 82 |
|
82 | 83 | There are a number of locators specialized for date locations - see |
83 | 84 | the `dates` module. |
