Struct plotpy::Legend

pub struct Legend { /* private fields */ }

Generates a Legend

Example

use plotpy::{Curve, Legend, Plot, StrError};
use russell_lab::Vector;

fn main() -> Result<(), StrError> {
    // generate (x,y) points
    let x  = Vector::linspace(0.0, 5.0, 6)?;
    let y1 = x.get_mapped(|v| 0.5 * v);
    let y2 = x.get_mapped(|v| 1.0 * v);
    let y3 = x.get_mapped(|v| 1.5 * v);
    let y4 = x.get_mapped(|v| 2.0 * v);

    // configure and draw curves
    let mut curve1 = Curve::new();
    let mut curve2 = Curve::new();
    let mut curve3 = Curve::new();
    let mut curve4 = Curve::new();
    curve1.set_label("y = 0.5 x");
    curve2.set_label("y = 1.0 x");
    curve3.set_label("y = 1.5 x");
    curve4.set_label("y = 2.0 x");
    curve1.draw(&x, &y1);
    curve2.draw(&x, &y2);
    curve3.draw(&x, &y3);
    curve4.draw(&x, &y4);

    // configure and draw legends
    let mut legend1 = Legend::new();
    legend1.set_fontsize(14.0)
        .set_handle_len(6.0)
        .set_num_col(2)
        .set_outside(true)
        .set_show_frame(false);
    legend1.draw();
    let mut legend2 = Legend::new();
    legend2.draw();

    // add curves and legends to subplots
    let mut plot = Plot::new();
    plot.set_subplot(2, 1, 1)
        .add(&curve1)
        .add(&curve2)
        .add(&curve3)
        .add(&curve4)
        .add(&legend1);
    plot.set_subplot(2, 1, 2)
        .add(&curve1)
        .add(&curve2)
        .add(&curve3)
        .add(&curve4)
        .add(&legend2);

    // save figure
    plot.save("/tmp/plotpy/doc_tests/doc_legend.svg")?;
    Ok(())

Implementations

impl Legend

pub fn new() -> Self

Creates a new Legend object

pub fn draw(&mut self)

Draws legend

pub fn set_fontsize(&mut self, fontsize: f64) -> &mut Self

Sets the fontsize

pub fn set_handle_len(&mut self, length: f64) -> &mut Self

Sets the length of legend’s indicator line

pub fn set_num_col(&mut self, num_columns: usize) -> &mut Self

Sets the number of columns

pub fn set_location(&mut self, location: &str) -> &mut Self

Sets the location

Options:

• “best”, “right”, “center left”
• Note: Only used if outside == false

pub fn set_outside(&mut self, flag: bool) -> &mut Self

Sets option to put legend outside of plot area

pub fn set_show_frame(&mut self, flag: bool) -> &mut Self

Sets option to show frame around legend

pub fn set_x_coords(&mut self, coords: &[f64]) -> &mut Self

Sets the normalized coordinates when drawing an outside legend

Example: [0.0, 1.02, 1.0, 0.102]
