Matplotlib.axis.Tick.get_transformed_clip_path_and_affine() in Python

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.Tick.get_transformed_clip_path_and_affine() Function

The Tick.get_transformed_clip_path_and_affine() function in axis module of matplotlib library is used to get the clip path with the non-affine part of its transformation applied, and the remaining affine part of its transformation.

Syntax: Tick.get_transformed_clip_path_and_affine(self) Parameters: This method does not accepts any parameter. Return value: This method return the clip path with the non-affine part of its transformation applied, and the remaining affine part of its transformation.

Below examples illustrate the matplotlib.axis.Tick.get_transformed_clip_path_and_affine() function in matplotlib.axis: Example 1: Image Used

Python3

# Implementation of matplotlib function
from matplotlib.axis import Tick
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import matplotlib.patches as patches
import matplotlib.cbook as cbook


with cbook.get_sample_data('image.PNG') as image_file:
    image = plt.imread(image_file)

fig, ax = plt.subplots()
im = ax.imshow(image)
patch = patches.Rectangle((10, 10), 100, 100,
                          transform = ax.transData)

val = Tick.get_transformed_clip_path_and_affine(im)
ax.set_title("Value Return by get_transformed_clip_path_and_affine(): "
             + str(val))

Output: Example 2:
