mpl_toolkits.mplot3d.art3d.Text3D

classmpl_toolkits.mplot3d.art3d.Text3D(x=0, y=0, z=0, text='', zdir='z', **kwargs)[source]

Bases: Text

Text object with 3D position and direction.

Parameters:

x, y, zfloat

The position of the text.

textstr

The text string to display.

zdir{'x', 'y', 'z', None, 3-tuple}

The direction of the text. See get_dir_vector for a description of the values.

Other Parameters:

**kwargs

All other parameters are passed on to Text.

Create a Text instance at x, y with string text.

The text is aligned relative to the anchor point (x, y) according to horizontalalignment (default: 'left') and verticalalignment (default: 'baseline'). See also Text alignment.

While Text accepts the 'label' keyword argument, by default it is not added to the handles of a legend.

Valid keyword arguments are:

draw(renderer)[source]

Draw the Artist (and its children) using the given renderer.

This has no effect if the artist is not visible (Artist.get_visible returns False).

Parameters:

rendererRendererBase subclass.

Notes

This method is overridden in the Artist subclasses.

get_position_3d()[source]

Return the (x, y, z) position of the text.

get_tightbbox(renderer=None)[source]

Like Artist.get_window_extent, but includes any clipping.

Parameters:

rendererRendererBase subclass, optional

renderer that will be used to draw the figures (i.e. fig.canvas.get_renderer())

Returns:

Bbox or None

The enclosing bounding box (in figure pixel coordinates). Returns None if clipping results in no intersection.

set_3d_properties(z=0, zdir='z')[source]

Set the z position and direction of the text.

Parameters:

zfloat

The z-position in 3D space.

zdir{'x', 'y', 'z', 3-tuple}

The direction of the text. Default: 'z'. See get_dir_vector for a description of the values.

Parameters:

xyz(float, float, float)

The position in 3D space.

zdir{'x', 'y', 'z', None, 3-tuple}

The direction of the text. If unspecified, the zdir will not be changed. See get_dir_vector for a description of the values.
