show_cycles(*args, **kwargs)[source]

Generate a table of registered color cycles or the input color cycles categorized by source. Adapted from this example.

Parameters
  • *args (colormap-spec, optional) – Cycle names or objects.

  • ignore (str or sequence of str, optional) – Used only if include was not passed. Category names to be removed from the table.

  • length (unit-spec, optional) – The length of the colorbars. If float, units are inches. If string, interpreted by units.

  • width (float or str, optional) – The width of the colorbars. If float, units are inches. If string, interpreted by units.
