CartesianAxes.alty¶
- CartesianAxes.alty(**kwargs)[source]¶
Add an axes locked to the same location with a distinct y axis. This is an alias and possibly more intuitive name for
twinx
, which generates two y axes with a shared (“twin”) x axes.- Parameters
**kwargs – Passed to
CartesianAxes
. You can optionally omit the y fromCartesianAxes.format
keywords beginning withy
. For example:ax.alty(lim=(0, 10))
is equivalent toax.alty(ylim=(0, 10))
.- Returns
CartesianAxes
– The resulting axes.
Note
This enforces the following default settings:
Places the old y axis on the left and the new y axis on the right.
Makes the old right spine invisible and the new left, bottom, and top spines invisible.
Adjusts the y axis tick, tick label, and axis label positions according to the visible spine positions.
Syncs the old and new x axis limits and scales, and makes the new x axis labels invisible.
