- str2tex(strin, space2linebreak=False, bold=False, italic=False, usetex=False)[source]#
Convert strings to LaTeX strings in math environment used by matplotlib’s usetex
Strings are embedded into ‘$mathrm{strin}$’ by default but can be embedded into ‘mathbf’ and ‘mathit’. Spaces are escaped but can be replaced by linebreaks.
- Parameters:
space2linebreak (bool, optional) – Replace space (’ ‘) by linebreak (’n’) if True (default: False)
bold (bool, optional) – Use ‘mathbf’ instead of ‘mathrm’ if True (default: False)
italic (bool, optional) – Use ‘mathit’ instead of ‘mathrm’ if True (default: False)
usetex (bool, optional) – Treat only linebreaks and comments if False (default)
- Returns:
string – string (array) that can be used in matplotlib independent of usetex.
- Return type:
Examples
fig = plt.figure() tit = str2tex('A $S_{Ti}$ is great\nbut use-less', usetex=usetex) fig.suptitle(tit)
