Problem
In https://matplotlib.org/stable/api/_as_gen/matplotlib.animation.FuncAnimation.html, the documentation of save
is very incomplete. This is because save
is a method inherited from the parent animation.Animation
.
Suggested improvement
I think it would be extremely helpful to have a link to the parent's save
method from animation.FuncAnimation
's documentation base, as currently I don't think there is a straightforward way to find that documentation. I actually had to go to the source code of FuncAnimation
, and follow up its inheritance tree to find where save
was defined, then either read the docstring or find the corresponding method in the online documentation.
To extend this further - it would be helpful for all subclasses to have proper links to a parent method's documentation when the method isn't modified in the child.
