PlotLayout

PlotLayout

is an option for plotting functions that specifies the layout of multiple components in a plot.

Details

  • PlotLayout determines how visual elements are placed relative to each other.
  • Common settings for PlotLayout include:
  • "Overlaid"allow the elements to overlap
    "Stacked"accumulate the values across elements
    "Percentile"accumulate and normalize the values across elements
  • Possible settings for PlotLayout that spread the plot elements across multiple plot panels include:
  • "Column"use a column of panels
    "Row"use a row of panels
    {"Column",k},{"Row",k}use k columns or rows
    {"Column",UpTo[k]},{"Row",UpTo[k]}use at most k columns or rows
  • Visualization functions for specialized domains may have alternative settings.

Basic Examples  (5)

By default, ListLinePlot plots each curve independently:

Stack the curves so that the second curve is the total of the first and second sets:

Scope  (8)

Use a stacked layout for point data:

Use a stacked layout for piecewise-constant data:

Show multiple density plots in a row:

Use multiple columns or rows:

Specify the layout of plots of a list of audio objects:

Plot against a common horizontal axis:

Plot against a common vertical axis:

Show wavelet image coefficients arranged in a pyramid layout:

Plot wavelet image coefficients in a grid layout:

Place the magnitude plot vertically above the phase plot:

Obtain the result in a list:

Only the magnitude plot:

Only the phase plot:
