Pygrace: A tool to convert matplotlib figure to xmgrace plots
After plotting the matplotlib figure, call pygrace.saveagr('myfig.agr') to save it as a xmgrace plot.
Current state of supperted matplotlib porperties
The conversion is done by the appropriate classes (AgrFigure, AgrAxis, ...) defined in the pygrace module.
They each only support a small subset of matplotlib properties, see below.
Figures
- canvas size (page size), controllable with
AgrFigure.dpi - font size scaling, controllable with
AgrFigure.fontscale - map colors
- x/y offset: adds an offset (as fraction of the according edge) to the xmgrace figure. Helpfull if x labels get pushed out of the page.
Axes
- size, axis limits
- title
- linear or log scale
- labels and ticklabels:
- turn on/off
- position (left, right, bottom, top)
- fontsize

Lines
- label (for legend)
