Bug summary
Axes with transforms (PolarTransform or CompositeGenericTransform) cannot be added to a subplot in python3. This appears to be due to the fact that matplotlib fails to create a hashable version of these objects for the purpose of making a dictionary key in
matplotlib/lib/matplotlib/figure.py
Lines 823 to 851 in 1bfc755
Code for reproduction
- Minimum working code:
%pylab inline
import matplotlib as mpl
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
import mpl_toolkits.axisartist.floating_axes as floating_axes
tr_rotate = mpl.transforms.Affine2D().rotate(3.1459)
tr = mpl.projections.polar.PolarTransform() +tr_rotate
grid_helper = floating_axes.GridHelperCurveLinear(tr, extremes=(0, 6.28318, 10., 20.))
fig = plt.figure()
ax1 = floating_axes.FloatingSubplot(fig, 111, grid_helper=grid_helper)
fig.add_subplot(ax1, transform=tr)Actual outcome
- Traceback from using python3 running in a Jupyter notebook:
