Attributes

add_menu_bar() → None[source]: Adds the menu bar to the BackgroundPlotter

add_toolbars() → None[source]: Adds toolbars to the BackgroundPlotter

compute_displacements(compute_scale=True) → ndarray[source]

Computes displacements to apply to the geometry

Parameters: compute_scale (bool, optional) – Renormalize the displacement scaling. The default is True.

next_shape() → None[source]: Increases the index of the shape being plotted

play_animation()[source]: Starts the animation playing

save_animation(filename=None, frames=20, frame_rate=20, individual_images=False)[source]

Saves the current shape animation to a file

Parameters

filename (str, optional) – Path to the file being saved. The default is None, which returns the images as an array rather than saves them to a file
frames (int, optional) – Number of frames in the animation. The default is 20.
frame_rate (float, optional) – Number of frames per second if the animation is saved to a GIF. The default is 20.
individual_images (bool, optional) – Boolean to specify whether the images are saved as individual PNG files or a single GIF. The default is False.

Returns

imgs – Returns array of images if filename is None, otherwise returns None

Return type

np.ndarray or None

frames (int, optional) – Number of frames in the animation. The default is 20.
frame_rate (float, optional) – Number of frames per second if the animation is saved to a GIF. The default is 20.
