I am trying to make a plot, in which I want to position another shrunk plot at certain coordinates of my first plot (MWE below).
Following the example at the end of the Layouts manual, I can, given a base plot p, use
Plots.scatter!(p, randn(100), inset = (1, bbox(x_norm,y_norm, 0.1, 0.1, :bottom))
to add a basic scatter plot to at the point with normalized coordinates `x_norm, y_norm``.
However, when I try to add a more sophisticated plot, call it s, which I can not declare in one go, I cannot use
Plots.plot!(p, s, inset = (1, bbox(x_norm,y_norm, 0.1, 0.1, :bottom))
which throws the error:
Error showing value of type Plots.Plot{Plots.GRBackend}:
ERROR: MethodError: no method matching get(::Int64, ::Symbol, ::Int64)
MWE:
using Plots
xs = -5:.1:5
f = 0.5 * xs.^2
## First Plot
p = Plots.plot()
plot!(p,xs,f,
label = :none,
fc = :blues,
fillrange = zero(xs),
lc = :blues
)
plot!(p,xs,f,
fillrange = fill(20,length(xs)),
fillalpha = 0.35,
fc = :red,
label = :none,
linewidth = 0.0,
grid=false,
widen = false
)
## Second plot
step = [-10,10,0]
mult = [25,25,51]
vals = randn.(mult) .+ [fill(val,mult) for (val,mult) in zip(step,mult)]
seq_ends = cumsum(vcat(0,mult))
seqs = [(1+seq_ends[i-1]):seq_ends[i] for i in 2:length(seq_ends)]
(x,y) = (0,10)
scatter!(p, [x], [y], color = :gray, label = :none, fillstyle = :none, markersize = 1 )
## Normalize the unnormalized coordinates
xlim = Plots.xlims(p)
ylim = Plots.ylims(p)
offset_abs = .01
x_norm = (x - xlim[1]) / (xlim[2] - xlim[1]) * 1.025
y_norm = (y - ylim[1]) / (ylim[2] - ylim[1]) * 1.025
s = Plots.plot()
for i in eachindex(seqs)
Plots.plot!(s,seqs[i],fill(step[i],length(seqs[i])),
linecolor = :purple,
linewidth = 2,
label = :none
)
end
Plots.scatter!(s,vcat(vals...),
color = :gray,
label = :none
)
## This works:
Plots.scatter!(p,
vcat(vals...),
color = :gray,
label = :none,
markersize = 1,
inset = (1, bbox(x_norm, y_norm, 0.1, 0.1, :bottom)),
subplot = 2,
ticks = nothing,
bg_inside = nothing
)
## This does not
Plots.plot!(
p,
s,
inset = (1, bbox(x_norm, y_norm, 0.1, 0.1, :bottom)),
subplot = 2,
ticks = nothing,
bg_inside = nothing,
label =:none
)
