Artisti ancorati

Questo esempio illustra l'uso degli oggetti ancorati senza le classi helper presenti in mpl_toolkits.axes_grid1. Questa versione della figura è simile a quella trovata in Simple Anchored Artists , ma è implementata utilizzando solo lo spazio dei nomi matplotlib, senza l'ausilio di toolkit aggiuntivi.
