I have a plot and a draggable line on it. I want to mark the intersection of the line and the plot when idle and also when moved, the intersection can be any marker.
Code for the draggable line:
class draggable_lines:
def __init__(self, ax, kind, XorY):
self.ax = ax
self.c = ax.get_figure().canvas
self.o = kind
self.XorY = XorY
if kind == "h":
x = [-1, 1]
y = [XorY, XorY]
elif kind == "v":
x = [XorY, XorY]
y = [0, 5000000]
self.line = lines.Line2D(x, y, picker=5)
self.ax.add_line(self.line)
self.c.draw_idle()
self.sid = self.c.mpl_connect('pick_event', self.clickonline)
def clickonline(self, event):
if event.artist == self.line:
print("line selected ", event.artist)
self.follower = self.c.mpl_connect("motion_notify_event", self.followmouse)
self.releaser = self.c.mpl_connect("button_press_event", self.releaseonclick)
def followmouse(self, event):
if self.o == "h":
self.line.set_ydata([event.ydata, event.ydata])
else:
self.line.set_xdata([event.xdata, event.xdata])
self.c.draw_idle()
def releaseonclick(self, event):
if self.o == "h":
self.XorY = self.line.get_ydata()[0]
else:
self.XorY = self.line.get_xdata()[0]
print (self.XorY)
self.c.mpl_disconnect(self.releaser)
self.c.mpl_disconnect(self.follower)
And code for plot for the GUI
figure = Figure(figsize=(5, 4), dpi=100)
plot = figure.add_subplot(1, 1, 1)
figure.suptitle("Date", fontsize=12)
Line, = plot.plot(x, y, color="Blue",linewidth = LineWidth)
canvas = FigureCanvasTkAgg(figure, root)
canvas.get_tk_widget().place(x=10,y=200)
toolbar = NavigationToolbar2Tk(canvas, root, pack_toolbar=False)
toolbar.update()
toolbar.place(x=10,y=600)
