使用工具栏更新pyqt5 gui中的嵌入式matplotlib图

标签: python matplotlib pyqt5

在此post中,我询问了如何在pyqt5 gui中嵌入一个matplotlib图,该图现在可以正常工作。现在,我还有一个直到现在还无法解决的问题:如何更新图形?

我试图通过调用来更新画布

self.plotWidget = FigureCanvas(fig)

每次都带有新的“ fig”对象,但是什么也没有发生。所以我试图将其添加到布局中

self.lay.addWidget(self.plotWidget)

,但这会向窗口小部件添加另一个子图。我猜想我必须在更新之前清除以前的图,但是我不知道该怎么做。

使用更新方法重新绘制的正确策略是什么?

谢谢!

您不应创建新图形,而应重新使用已有的轴。这意味着您必须先保留对该对象的引用。

我现在无法测试代码,但是您应该做类似的事情

def __init__(self):
    (...)
    self.fig, self.ax = plt.subplots()
    (...)

def update(self):
    data = (...)
    self.ax.cla()  # clear the axes content
    self.ax.hist(...)
    self.fig.canvas.draw_idle()  # actually draw the new content
