.. _imshow_extent:
*origin* and *extent* in `~.Axes.imshow`
========================================
:meth:`~.Axes.imshow` allows you to render an image (either a 2D array which
will be color-mapped (based on *norm* and *cmap*) or a 3D RGB(A) array which
will be used as-is) to a rectangular region in data space. The orientation of
the image in the final rendering is controlled by the *origin* and *extent*
keyword arguments (and attributes on the resulting `.AxesImage` instance) and
the data limits of the Axes.
The *extent* keyword arguments controls the bounding box in data coordinates
that the image will fill specified as ``(left, right, bottom, top)`` in **data
coordinates**, the *origin* keyword argument controls how the image fills that
bounding box, and the orientation in the final rendered image is also affected
by the axes limits.
.. hint:: Most of the code below is used for adding labels and informative
text to the plots. The described effects of *origin* and *extent* can be
seen in the plots without the need to follow all code details.
For a quick understanding, you may want to skip the code details below and
directly continue with the discussion of the results.

# Default extent
# --------------
#
# First, let's have a look at the default ``extent=None``
generate_imshow_demo_grid(extents=[None])
# %%
#
# Generally, for an array of shape (M, N), the first index runs along the
# vertical, the second index runs along the horizontal.
# The pixel centers are at integer positions ranging from 0 to ``N' = N - 1``
# horizontally and from 0 to ``M' = M - 1`` vertically.
# *origin* determines how the data is filled in the bounding box.
#
# For ``origin='lower'``:
#
# - [0, 0] is at (left, bottom)
# - [M', 0] is at (left, top)
# - [0, N'] is at (right, bottom)
# - [M', N'] is at (right, top)
#
# ``origin='upper'`` reverses the vertical axes direction and filling:
#
# - [0, 0] is at (left, top)
# - [M', 0] is at (left, bottom)
# - [0, N'] is at (right, top)
# - [M', N'] is at (right, bottom)
#
# In summary, the position of the [0, 0] index as well as the extent are
# influenced by *origin*:
#
# ====== =============== ==========================================
# origin [0, 0] position extent
# ====== =============== ==========================================
# upper top left ``(-0.5, numcols-0.5, numrows-0.5, -0.5)``
# lower bottom left ``(-0.5, numcols-0.5, -0.5, numrows-0.5)``
# ====== =============== ==========================================
#
# The default value of *origin* is set by :rc:`image.origin` which defaults
# to ``'upper'`` to match the matrix indexing conventions in math and
# computer graphics image indexing conventions.
#
#
# Explicit extent
# ---------------
#
# By setting *extent* we define the coordinates of the image area. The
# underlying image data is interpolated/resampled to fill that area.
#
# If the Axes is set to autoscale, then the view limits of the Axes are set
# to match the *extent* which ensures that the coordinate set by
# ``(left, bottom)`` is at the bottom left of the Axes! However, this
# may invert the axis so they do not increase in the 'natural' direction.
#
extents = [(-0.5, 6.5, -0.5, 5.5),
(-0.5, 6.5, 5.5, -0.5),

# %%
#
# Explicit extent and axes limits
# -------------------------------
#
# If we fix the axes limits by explicitly setting `~.axes.Axes.set_xlim` /
# `~.axes.Axes.set_ylim`, we force a certain size and orientation of the Axes.
# This can decouple the 'left-right' and 'top-bottom' sense of the image from
# the orientation on the screen.
#
# In the example below we have chosen the limits slightly larger than the
# extent (note the white areas within the Axes).
#
# While we keep the extents as in the examples before, the coordinate (0, 0)
# is now explicitly put at the bottom left and values increase to up and to
# the right (from the viewer's point of view).
# We can see that:
#
# - The coordinate ``(left, bottom)`` anchors the image which then fills the
# box going towards the ``(right, top)`` point in data space.
# - The first column is always closest to the 'left'.
# - *origin* controls if the first row is closest to 'top' or 'bottom'.
# - The image may be inverted along either direction.
# - The 'left-right' and 'top-bottom' sense of the image may be uncoupled from
# the orientation on the screen.
