animatplot.blocks.Title

class animatplot.blocks.Title(text, ax=None, *args, **kwargs)[source]

Animates an axes title.

Follows the same syntax as a format-string, but the values to be replaced must be given as an array of values for each timestep.

Alternatively can just accept a list of strings, one for each timestep.

Parameters:
  • text (str or list of str) – Text to display as the title. Either supplied as a list of strings, one for each timestep, or as a base string with curly braces for any “replacement fields”.
  • ax (matplotlib.axes.Axes, optional) – The matplotlib axes to attach the block to. Defaults to matplotlib.pyplot.gca()
  • mpl_kwargs (dict, optional) – Keyword arguments to pass to matplotlib.pyplot.title()
  • args (optional) – Passed on to str.format()
  • kwargs (optional) – If kwarg matches a field in the format string, then passed on to str.format(), else passed on to matplotlib.axes.Axes.set_title().
ax

matplotlib axis – The matplotlib axes that the block is attached to.
