matplotlib.artist.Artist.update#

Artist.update(props)[source]#

[Discouraged] Update this artist's properties from the dictionary props.

Discouraged

This method exists for historic reasons. Please use Artist.set instead. artist.update(props) is nowadays almost identical to artist.set(**props) with the only difference that set will additionally check that a property is not specified multiple times through aliases.

Parameters:
propsdict

Dictionary of properties (keys) and their new values.

Returns:
list

A list of return values from the configured setters.
