examples/axis/painter.py

   1 # The axispainter performs the painting of an axis. By default, ticks
   2 # are stroked inside of the graph (in the path examples there is no
   3 # graph but don't mind) while labels and the axis title are plotted
   4 # outside. The axistitle is rotated along the axis (without writing it
   5 # upside down), while the tick labels are not rotated. The axispainter
   6 # takes a variety of keyword arguments to modify the default
   7 # behaviour.
