Matplotlib is a library in Python and it is numerical – mathematical extension for NumPy library. It is an amazing visualization library in Python for 2D plots of arrays and used for working with the broader SciPy stack.
 

matplotlib.axis.Axis.properties() Function

The Axis.properties() function in axis module of matplotlib library is used to get the dictionary of all the properties of the artist. 
 

Syntax: Axis.properties(self) 

Parameters: This method does not accepts any parameters. 

Return value: This method return dictionary of all the properties of the artist. 

Below examples illustrate the matplotlib.axis.Axis.properties() function in matplotlib.axis:
Example 1:

Python3




# Implementation of matplotlib function
from matplotlib.axis import Axis
import numpy as np   
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt   
          
    
xx = np.random.rand(5, 7)   
          
fig, ax = plt.subplots()   
          
m = ax.pcolor(xx)   
m.set_zorder(2)  
      
w = Axis.properties(ax)  
print("Display all Properties\n")  
for i in w:  
    print(i, ":", w[i]) 
  
fig.suptitle('matplotlib.axis.Axis.properties() \
function Example\n', fontweight ="bold")  
    
plt.show() 


Output:
