Plot Toolbar

Most of the panels in which data is plotted have a toolbar. The toolbar provides tools for manipulation of the plot and for saving an image of the plot. This is a generic toolbar, and some of the actions may not be useful or relevant to the type of plot. The toolbar buttons are described below.

	Reset Reset the plot to the original pan and zoom settings.
	Back Display the previous view of the plot in the view history.
	Forward Display the next view of the plot in the view history.
	Pan/zoom Pan the plot by dragging with the left mouse button, zoom by dragging with the right button.
	Zoom to rectangle Drag out a rectangle on the plot to zoom in to that rectangle.
	Configure subplots Configure the margins and spacing of each plot in the panel.
	Save image Save an image of the plot to file. Opens a file selector in which you can browse to a location, select the image format, and name the image. The resolution of saved raster images (PNG, JPG) is controlled by your matplotlib configuration file rather than from this toolbar. To set it, create a file at ~/.config/matplotlib/matplotlibrc containing the line savefig.dpi: N, where N is the desired resolution in dots per inch (for example, 300). All images saved from matplotlib plot toolbars will then use that resolution. See the matplotlib documentation for the full set of options that can be set in this file.
	Edit axis and curve parameters Make settings for the title, range, labeling, and scale of the axes; the color, style, and width of lines; and the color, style, and size of markers.
	Copy image Copy an image of the plot to the clipboard, so you can paste it into another application. This button is only available in some panels.
