update_vlims

PlasmaCalcs.plotting.plot_tools.lims.update_vlims(values, d, *, in_place=False)

calculate vmin, vmax of values, and return copy of d updated appropriately.

values: array-like or list of array-like objects

the values to use for calculating the vlims.

if list of array-like objects, the array-like objects may be of different shapes.

d: dict which may have keys ‘vmin’, ‘vmax’, and/or ‘robust’, indicating:

vmin, vmax: None or value

if provided, use this value for vmin, vmax. Otherwise, calculate it.

robust: UNSET, bool, or number between 0 and 50 (default: UNSET)

use np.percentile when determining vmin/vmax, if robust.

For imshow/image plots, this refers to colorbar lims; for line plots, this refers to y lims.

UNSET –> use DEFAULTS.PLOT.ROBUST (default: True).

False –> just use min and max of values, don’t use percentile.

True –> use DEFAULTS.PLOT.ROBUST_PERCENTILE (default: 2.0)

number –> use np.percentile with this percentile for vmin (and 100 - this percentile for vmax).

Note: the ‘robust’ key will be popped from the result.

in_place: bool, default False

whether to perform the operation in place. True –> edit d directly.
