NAME

mxplot-matplotlib - Plotting the results of a mcxtrace simulation using Matplotlib

SYNOPSIS

mxplot-matplotlib [-h] [-t] [–html] [–format FORMAT] [–output OUTPUT] [–log] [–backend BACKEND] [simulation ...]

DESCRIPTION

The front-end mxplot-matplotlib is a program that produces plots of all the monitors in a simulation, and it is thus useful to get a quick overview of the simulation results. In the simplest case, the front-end is run simply by typing mxplot-matplotlib. This will plot any simulation data stored in the current directory, which is where simulations store their results by default. If the --dir or --file options have been used, the name of the file or directory should be passed to mxplot-matplotlib , e.g. mxplot-matplotlib dir or mxplot-matplotlib file. It is also possible to plot one single text (not binary) data file from a given monitor, passing its name to mxplot-matplotlib. The -h option will list valid options.

This is the Matplotlib plotting tool.

OPTIONS

simulation

file or directory to plot

-h, –help

show this help message and exit

-t, –test

mxcode data loader test run

–html

save plot to html using mpld3 (linux only)

–format FORMAT

save plot to pdf/png/eps/svg... without bringing up window

–output OUTPUT

save plot to given file without bringing up window. Extension (e.g. pdf/png/eps/svg) can be specified in the file name or --format

–log

initiate plot(s) with log of signal

–backend BACKEND

use non-default backend for matplotlib plot
