Graph

Overview

The Graph class is responsible for rendering and updating a graphical representation of datapoints in the NaPyTau application. It utilizes matplotlib to create plots and integrates with tkinter via FigureCanvasTkAgg.

When constructed the App instance will give itself as a parent to the Graph. The Graph component can access the needed datapoints and other Attributes from this parent reference.

The Graph class is used within the App to render data visualizations. It updates dynamically based on user interactions and selected appearance modes.

Attributes

parent

Reference to the parent application instance.

graph_frame

The main canvas widget where the graph is displayed.

canvas

A tkinter-compatible Matplotlib figure canvas containing the graph.

main_color

The primary background color for the graph, adapting to appearance mode.

secondary_color

The secondary color used for elements like grid lines and ticks.

main_marker_color

The primary color used for markers on the graph.

secondary_marker_color

The secondary color used for markers on the graph.
