Re: [matplotlib-devel] axes_class in add_subplot()?

[Jae-Joon L. <lee...@gm...>]

Sorry, I accidentally sent an incomplete email.
here is a complete one.



I sometimes use a custom Axes class, and want to use it with
add_subplot() command.
As a matter of fact, it IS possible with current version of matplotlib
but it seems a bit inconvenient to me.
Here is what I may do.


  import matplotlib.axes as maxes

  class MyAxes(maxes.Axes):
   name="myaxes"
    # some definitions

  import matplotlib.projections
  matplotlib.projections.register_projection(MyAxes)

  F = figure()
  ax = F.add_subplot(1,2,2, projection="myaxes")



But it would much better if I can simply do something like


  class MyAxes(maxes.Axes):
    # some definitions

  F = figure()
  ax = F.add_subplot(1,2,2, axes_class=MyAxes)

It seems rather straight forward to implement "axes_class" keyword in
add_subplot() and I may make a patch for it.
So, how does others think?
