如果你想在一个更大的情节中插入一个小情节，你可以使用Axes，就像这里一样。

问题是我不知道如何在子图中做同样的事情。

我有几个子图，我想在每个子图中绘制一个小图。示例代码将是这样的：

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

fig = plt.figure()

for i in range(4):
    ax = fig.add_subplot(2,2,i)
    ax.plot(np.arange(11),np.arange(11),'b')

    #b = ax.axes([0.7,0.7,0.2,0.2]) 
    #it gives an error, AxesSubplot is not callable

    #b = plt.axes([0.7,0.7,0.2,0.2])
    #plt.plot(np.arange(3),np.arange(3)+11,'g')
    #it plots the small plot in the selected position of the whole figure, not inside the subplot

有任何想法吗？

提前致谢！

我写了一个与 plt.axes 非常相似的函数。你可以用它来绘制你的子子图。有一个例子...

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np

#def add_subplot_axes(ax,rect,facecolor='w'): # matplotlib 2.0+
def add_subplot_axes(ax,rect,axisbg='w'):
    fig = plt.gcf()
    box = ax.get_position()
    width = box.width
    height = box.height
    inax_position  = ax.transAxes.transform(rect[0:2])
    transFigure = fig.transFigure.inverted()
    infig_position = transFigure.transform(inax_position)    
    x = infig_position[0]
    y = infig_position[1]
    width *= rect[2]
    height *= rect[3]  # <= Typo was here
    #subax = fig.add_axes([x,y,width,height],facecolor=facecolor)  # matplotlib 2.0+
    subax = fig.add_axes([x,y,width,height],axisbg=axisbg)
    x_labelsize = subax.get_xticklabels()[0].get_size()
    y_labelsize = subax.get_yticklabels()[0].get_size()
    x_labelsize *= rect[2]**0.5
    y_labelsize *= rect[3]**0.5
    subax.xaxis.set_tick_params(labelsize=x_labelsize)
    subax.yaxis.set_tick_params(labelsize=y_labelsize)
    return subax
    
def example1():
    fig = plt.figure(figsize=(10,10))
    ax = fig.add_subplot(111)
    rect = [0.2,0.2,0.7,0.7]
    ax1 = add_subplot_axes(ax,rect)
    ax2 = add_subplot_axes(ax1,rect)
    ax3 = add_subplot_axes(ax2,rect)
    plt.show()

def example2():
    fig = plt.figure(figsize=(10,10))
    axes = []
    subpos = [0.2,0.6,0.3,0.3]
    x = np.linspace(-np.pi,np.pi)
    for i in range(4):
        axes.append(fig.add_subplot(2,2,i))
    for axis in axes:
        axis.set_xlim(-np.pi,np.pi)
        axis.set_ylim(-1,3)
        axis.plot(x,np.sin(x))
        subax1 = add_subplot_axes(axis,subpos)
        subax2 = add_subplot_axes(subax1,subpos)
        subax1.plot(x,np.sin(x))
        subax2.plot(x,np.sin(x))
if __name__ == '__main__':
    example2()
    plt.show()

您现在可以使用 matplotlibsinset_axes方法执行此操作（请参阅文档）：

from mpl_toolkits.axes_grid.inset_locator import inset_axes
inset_axes = inset_axes(parent_axes,
                    width="30%", # width = 30% of parent_bbox
                    height=1., # height : 1 inch
                    loc=3)

更新：正如Kuti指出的，对于 matplotlib 2.1 或更高版本，您应该将导入语句更改为：

from mpl_toolkits.axes_grid1.inset_locator import inset_axes

现在还有一个完整的示例显示所有可用的不同选项。

从 matplotlib 3.0 开始，您可以使用matplotlib.axes.Axes.inset_axes：

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

fig, axes = plt.subplots(2,2)

for ax in axes.flat:
    ax.plot(np.arange(11),np.arange(11))

    ins = ax.inset_axes([0.7,0.7,0.2,0.2])

plt.show()

@jrieke 的回答mpl_toolkits.axes_grid.inset_locator.inset_axes中提到的不同之处在于，这更容易使用（没有额外的导入等），但缺点是灵活性稍差（没有填充或角落位置的参数）。
