I am working on a GUI plotting tool and need to split the contents of one matplotlib Figure object across two tkinter FigureCanvasTkAgg objects. In a previous iteration, I accomplished this by placing the legend and table outside of the borders of the plot using bbox() - but this does not gel with the "Reset Original View" in the matplotlib toolbar and causes the x-axis scale to change with each click of the button.
Shown below is how I am splitting apart these two canvases in tkinter
_______________________________________________________
[ main_plot_frame ]
[ _______________________________________________ ]
[ [ | ] ]
[ [ plot_frame_canvas | subplot_canvas ] ]
[ [ _____________________ | _____________ ] ]
[ [ [ ] | [leg - ax2 ] ] ]
[ [ [ plot - ax1 ] | [ ] ] ]
[ [ [ ] | [tbl - ax3 ] ] ]
[ [ [___________________] | [___________] ] ]
[ [ | ] ]
[ [__________________________|__________________] ]
[ ]
[_____________________________________________________]
It would be ideal to be able to user some call like
self.plot_frame_canvas.add_subplot(ax1)
self.subplot_canvas.add_subplot(ax2)
self.subplot_canvas.add_subplot(ax3)
self.plot_frame_canvas.draw()
self.subplot_frame_canvas.draw()
I have not so far found a way to do this in the MatPlotLib documentation - is there any easily accessible way to do something like this?
