Draw a box to mark the location of an area represented by an inset axes.
This function draws a box in parent_axes at the bounding box of inset_axes, and shows a connection with the inset axes by drawing lines at the corners, giving a "zoomed in" effect.
matplotlib.axes.Axes
Axes which contains the area of the inset axes.
matplotlib.axes.Axes
The inset axes.
Corners to use for connecting the inset axes and the area in the parent axes.
