在pyqtgraph中的x轴上显示字符串值 [英] Show string values on x-axis in pyqtgraph

问题描述

我想在 pyqtgraph 中显示 x 轴上刻度的字符串值.现在我无法弄清楚如何做到这一点.

例如:

x = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f']y = [1, 2, 3, 4, ,5, 6]pg.plot(x, y)

当我尝试将字符串数组传递给 x 变量时，它会尝试将其转换为浮点数并用错误消息破坏 GUI.

解决方案

通常在 pyqtgraph 中处理自定义轴字符串时人们子类

I want to display string values for ticks on x-axis in pyqtgraph. Right now I am unable to figure out how to do that.

Ex:

x = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f']
y = [1, 2, 3, 4, ,5, 6]
pg.plot(x, y) 

When I try to pass the string array to the x variable it tries converting that to float and breaks the GUI with the error message.

解决方案

Usually in pyqtgraph when dealing with custom axis strings people subclass AxisItem and override tickStrings with the strings they want displayed.

See e.g. pyqtgraph : how to plot time series (date and time on the x axis)?

Pyqtgraphs axisitem also has a built in setTicks that allows you to specify the ticks that are going to be displayed, this could be done for a simple problem like this instead of subclassing the AxisItem.

---

Plotting with custom string on x-axis could be done like this.

• Create a dict with x-values together with the strings to be displayed on the axis.

xdict = {0:'a', 1:'b', 2:'c', 3:'d', 4:'e', 5:'f'}

or by using

x = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f']
xdict = dict(enumerate(x))

• Use setTicks in an AxisItem or Subclass AxisItem and in tickStrings find the string corresponding to the value.

1. Using a standard pyqtgraph AxisItem and setTicks

    from PyQt4 import QtCore
    import pyqtgraph as pg

    x = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f']
    y = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
    xdict = dict(enumerate(x))

    win = pg.GraphicsWindow()
    stringaxis = pg.AxisItem(orientation='bottom')
    stringaxis.setTicks([xdict.items()])
    plot = win.addPlot(axisItems={'bottom': stringaxis})
    curve = plot.plot(list(xdict.keys()),y)

    if __name__ == '__main__':
        import sys
        if sys.flags.interactive != 1 or not hasattr(QtCore, 'PYQT_VERSION'):
            pg.QtGui.QApplication.exec_()

2. Implementation by subclassing AxisItem

This is a more generic method which can be easily changed to all kinds of fun things e.g. converting a unix timestamp to a date.

    from PyQt4 import QtCore
    import pyqtgraph as pg
    import numpy as np

    class MyStringAxis(pg.AxisItem):
        def __init__(self, xdict, *args, **kwargs):
            pg.AxisItem.__init__(self, *args, **kwargs)
            self.x_values = np.asarray(xdict.keys())
            self.x_strings = xdict.values()

        def tickStrings(self, values, scale, spacing):
            strings = []
            for v in values:
                # vs is the original tick value
                vs = v * scale
                # if we have vs in our values, show the string
                # otherwise show nothing
                if vs in self.x_values:
                    # Find the string with x_values closest to vs
                    vstr = self.x_strings[np.abs(self.x_values-vs).argmin()]
                else:
                    vstr = ""
                strings.append(vstr)
            return strings

    x = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f']
    y = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
    xdict = dict(enumerate(x))

    win = pg.GraphicsWindow()
    stringaxis = MyStringAxis(xdict, orientation='bottom')
    plot = win.addPlot(axisItems={'bottom': stringaxis})
    curve = plot.plot(list(xdict.keys()),y)

    if __name__ == '__main__':
        import sys
        if sys.flags.interactive != 1 or not hasattr(QtCore, 'PYQT_VERSION'):
            pg.QtGui.QApplication.exec_()
