I would like to know if it possible to save matplotlib animation with lossless quality (or even vectorial format)
I have the following animation from matplotlib examples
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from matplotlib.animation import FuncAnimation
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
xdata, ydata = [], []
ln, = plt.plot([], [], 'ro')
def init():
ax.set_xlim(0, 2*np.pi)
ax.set_ylim(-1, 1)
return ln,
def update(frame):
xdata.append(frame)
ydata.append(np.sin(frame))
ln.set_data(xdata, ydata)
return ln,
ani = FuncAnimation(fig, update, frames=np.linspace(0, 2*np.pi, 128),
init_func=init, blit=True)
plt.show()
I found this post from 2013 Can matplotlib animation output vector sequence? and at the time it was not possible.
Has anything changed and is it now possible to output the data into vector-like format?
