neurom.view.view.plot_neuron

neurom.view.view.plot_neuron(ax, nrn, plane='xy', soma_outline=True, diameter_scale=1.0, linewidth=1.2, color=None, alpha=0.8)

Plots a 2D figure of the neuron, that contains a soma and the neurites

Parameters:

• ax (matplotlib axes) – on what to plot
• nrn (neuron) – neuron to be plotted
• soma_outline (bool) – should the soma be drawn as an outline
• plane (str) – Any pair of ‘xyz’
• diameter_scale (float) – Scale factor multiplied with segment diameters before plotting
• linewidth (float) – all segments are plotted with this width, but only if diameter_scale=None
• color (str or None) – Color of plotted values, None corresponds to default choice
• alpha (float) – Transparency of plotted values
