[英]Update an embedded matplotlib plot in a pyqt5 gui with toolbar
In this post I asked how to embed a matplotlib plot in a pyqt5 gui which is working fine now. 在这篇文章中,我问了如何在pyqt5 gui中嵌入一个matplotlib图,它现在可以正常工作。 Now I have a further problem that I couldn't solve until now: how can I update the figure?
现在,我还有一个直到现在还无法解决的问题:如何更新图形?
I tried to update the canvas by calling 我试图通过调用来更新画布
self.plotWidget = FigureCanvas(fig)
every time with a new "fig" object but nothing happened. 每次带有一个新的“ fig”对象,但是什么也没有发生。 So I tried to add it to the layout
所以我试图将其添加到布局
self.lay.addWidget(self.plotWidget)
but this adds another subplot to the widget. 但这会向窗口小部件添加另一个子图。 I guess that I have to clear the previous plot before updating but I don't know how to do it.
我猜想我必须在更新之前清除以前的图,但是我不知道该怎么做。
What is the correct strategy to replot using the update method? 使用更新方法重新绘图的正确策略是什么?
Thanks! 谢谢!

You should not create a new figure, instead, reuse the axes that you already have. 您不应该创建一个新图形,而是重新使用已经拥有的轴。 That means that you have to keep a reference to that object first.
这意味着您必须先保留对该对象的引用。
I cannot test the code right now, but you should do something like 我现在无法测试代码,但是您应该执行以下操作
def __init__(self):
(...)
self.fig, self.ax = plt.subplots()
(...)
def update(self):
data = (...)
self.ax.cla() # clear the axes content
self.ax.hist(...)
self.fig.canvas.draw_idle() # actually draw the new content
