NumberPlane#

Qualified name: manim.mobject.graphing.coordinate\_systems.NumberPlane

class NumberPlane(x_range=(- 7.111111111111111, 7.111111111111111, 1), y_range=(- 4.0, 4.0, 1), x_length=None, y_length=None, background_line_style=None, faded_line_style=None, faded_line_ratio=1, make_smooth_after_applying_functions=True, **kwargs)[source]#

Bases: Axes

Creates a cartesian plane with background lines.

Parameters
  • x_range (Sequence[float] | None) – The [x_min, x_max, x_step] values of the plane in the horizontal direction.

  • y_range (Sequence[float] | None) – The [y_min, y_max, y_step] values of the plane in the vertical direction.

  • x_length (float | None) – The width of the plane.

  • y_length (float | None) – The height of the plane.

  • background_line_style (dict | None) – Arguments that influence the construction of the background lines of the plane.

  • faded_line_style (dict | None) – Similar to background_line_style, affects the construction of the scene’s background lines.

  • faded_line_ratio (int) – Determines the number of boxes within the background lines: 2 = 4 boxes, 3 = 9 boxes.

  • make_smooth_after_applying_functions (bool) – Currently non-functional.

  • kwargs – Additional arguments to be passed to Axes.

Note

If x_length or y_length are not defined, they are automatically calculated such that one unit on each axis is one Manim unit long.
