healpy.projaxes.HpxMollweideAxes.axvspan¶

HpxMollweideAxes.axvspan(xmin, xmax, ymin=0, ymax=1, **kwargs)¶

Add a vertical span (rectangle) across the axes.

Call signature:

axvspan(xmin, xmax, ymin=0, ymax=1, **kwargs)

x coords are in data units and y coords are in axes (relative 0-1) units.

Draw a vertical span (rectangle) from xmin to xmax. With the default values of ymin = 0 and ymax = 1, this always spans the yrange, regardless of the ylim settings, even if you change them, e.g., with the set_ylim() command. That is, the vertical extent is in axes coords: 0=bottom, 0.5=middle, 1.0=top but the y location is in data coordinates.

Return value is the matplotlib.patches.Polygon instance.

Examples:

draw a vertical green translucent rectangle from x=1.25 to 1.55 that spans the yrange of the axes:
```
>>> axvspan(1.25, 1.55, facecolor='g', alpha=0.5)
```
