mpl_toolkits.mplot3d.axes3d.Axes3D.set_aspect

Axes3D.set_aspect(aspect, adjustable=None, anchor=None, share=False)[source]

Set the aspect ratios.

Parameters:

aspect{'auto', 'equal', 'equalxy', 'equalxz', 'equalyz'}

Possible values:

value	description
'auto'	automatic; fill the position rectangle with data.
'equal'	adapt all the axes to have equal aspect ratios.
'equalxy'	adapt the x and y axes to have equal aspect ratios.
'equalxz'	adapt the x and z axes to have equal aspect ratios.
'equalyz'	adapt the y and z axes to have equal aspect ratios.

adjustableNone or {'box', 'datalim'}, optional

If not None, this defines which parameter will be adjusted to meet the required aspect. See set_adjustable for further details.

anchorNone or str or 2-tuple of float, optional

If not None, this defines where the Axes will be drawn if there is extra space due to aspect constraints. The most common way to specify the anchor are abbreviations of cardinal directions:

value	description
'C'	centered
'SW'	lower left corner
'S'	middle of bottom edge
'SE'	lower right corner
etc.

See set_anchor for further details.

sharebool, default: False

If True, apply the settings to all shared Axes.
