如何使用 blit 有效地重绘多个 matplotlib 图

Question

我使用 matplotlib 和 pyqt5 将数据绘制到 3 个轴中，然后用户可以在一个图中进行选择，该图也将显示在其他两个图中。由于我正在处理大数据（多达 1000 万个点），绘图选择可能会很慢，尤其是当我需要绘制散点图时。

我正在尝试使用 matplotlib blit 函数，但结果有些问题。这是最简单的例子。

import matplotlib
matplotlib.use('Qt5Agg')
import numpy as np
import sys

from matplotlib.backends.qt_compat import QtCore, QtWidgets
from matplotlib.backends.backend_qt5agg import (FigureCanvas, NavigationToolbar2QT as NavigationToolbar)
from matplotlib.figure import Figure


class ApplicationWindow(QtWidgets.QMainWindow):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        self._main = QtWidgets.QWidget()
        self.setCentralWidget(self._main)
        layout = QtWidgets.QVBoxLayout(self._main)

        self.static_canvas = FigureCanvas(Figure(figsize=(10, 10)))
        layout.addWidget(self.static_canvas)
        layout.addWidget(NavigationToolbar(self.static_canvas, self))
        axes = self.static_canvas.figure.subplots(2, 1)
        self.ax1 = axes[0]
        self.ax2 = axes[1]
        self.ax1.cla()
        self.ax2.cla()

        button = QtWidgets.QPushButton('Click me!')
        button.clicked.connect(self.update_canvas_blit)
        layout.addWidget(button)
        # Fixing random state for reproducibility
        np.random.seed(19680801)

        # Create random data
        N = 50000
        x = np.random.rand(N)
        y = np.random.rand(N)

        self.ax1.scatter(x, y)
        self.points = self.ax1.scatter([],[], s=5, color='red')

        x = np.linspace(0, 1000, 100000)
        self.ax2.plot(x, np.sin(x))
        self.lines, = self.ax2.plot([],[], color='red')
        self.static_canvas.draw()

        self.background1 = self.static_canvas.copy_from_bbox(self.ax1.bbox)
        self.background2 = self.static_canvas.copy_from_bbox(self.ax2.bbox)

    def update_canvas_blit(self):
        N = 50
        x = np.random.rand(N)
        y = np.random.rand(N)

        self.static_canvas.restore_region(self.background1)
        self.points.set_offsets(np.c_[x,y])
        self.ax1.draw_artist(self.points)
        self.ax1.figure.canvas.blit(self.ax1.bbox)

        self.static_canvas.restore_region(self.background2)
        x = np.linspace(0, np.random.randint(500,1000), 1000)
        self.lines.set_data(x, np.sin(x))
        self.ax2.draw_artist(self.lines)
        self.ax2.figure.canvas.blit(self.ax2.bbox)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    qapp = QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)
    app = ApplicationWindow()
    app.show()
    qapp.exec_()

点击按钮时，预期的输出应该仍然是相同的背景，随机点/线重绘。在某种程度上它正在发生，但有一些奇怪的工件看起来像是以某种方式相互吸引轴。但是当我尝试将其保存为 .png 时，它会恢复到良好状态。

Answer 1

问题是背景快照是在人物尚未显示在屏幕上的时刻拍摄的。那时，这个数字是 10 x 10 英寸大。稍后，它会显示在 QMainWindow 中并调整大小以适合小部件。
只有在这种情况发生后，拍摄背景快照才有意义。

一种选择是使用 1 秒的计时器，然后才复制背景。如下所示。

import numpy as np
import sys

from matplotlib.backends.qt_compat import QtCore, QtWidgets
from matplotlib.backends.backend_qt5agg import (FigureCanvas, NavigationToolbar2QT as NavigationToolbar)
from matplotlib.figure import Figure


class ApplicationWindow(QtWidgets.QMainWindow):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        self._main = QtWidgets.QWidget()
        self.setCentralWidget(self._main)
        layout = QtWidgets.QVBoxLayout(self._main)

        self.static_canvas = FigureCanvas(Figure(figsize=(10, 10)))
        layout.addWidget(self.static_canvas)
        layout.addWidget(NavigationToolbar(self.static_canvas, self))
        axes = self.static_canvas.figure.subplots(2, 1)
        self.ax1 = axes[0]
        self.ax2 = axes[1]
        self.ax1.cla()
        self.ax2.cla()

        button = QtWidgets.QPushButton('Click me!')
        button.clicked.connect(self.update_canvas_blit)
        layout.addWidget(button)
        # Fixing random state for reproducibility
        np.random.seed(19680801)

        # Create random data
        N = 50000
        x = np.random.rand(N)
        y = np.random.rand(N)

        self.ax1.scatter(x, y)
        self.points = self.ax1.scatter([],[], s=5, color='red')

        x = np.linspace(0, 1000, 100000)
        self.ax2.plot(x, np.sin(x))
        self.lines, = self.ax2.plot([],[], color='red')
        self.static_canvas.draw()

        self._later()


    def _later(self, evt=None):
        self.timer = self.static_canvas.new_timer(interval=1000)
        self.timer.single_shot = True
        self.timer.add_callback(self.update_background)
        self.timer.start()


    def update_background(self, evt=None):
        self.background1 = self.static_canvas.copy_from_bbox(self.ax1.bbox)
        self.background2 = self.static_canvas.copy_from_bbox(self.ax2.bbox)

    def update_canvas_blit(self):
        N = 50
        x = np.random.rand(N)
        y = np.random.rand(N)

        self.static_canvas.restore_region(self.background1)
        self.points.set_offsets(np.c_[x,y])
        self.ax1.draw_artist(self.points)
        self.ax1.figure.canvas.blit(self.ax1.bbox)

        self.static_canvas.restore_region(self.background2)
        x = np.linspace(0, np.random.randint(500,1000), 1000)
        self.lines.set_data(x, np.sin(x))
        self.ax2.draw_artist(self.lines)
        self.ax2.figure.canvas.blit(self.ax2.bbox)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    qapp = QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)
    app = ApplicationWindow()
    app.show()
    qapp.exec_()
