How To Make Items Clickable (onpick) In Seaborn Scatterplot?

I'm using sns.scatterplot function to analyze some data. It would be very helpful for me if I could pick an object on the plot by clicking on it and execute a function. Matplotlib

Solution 1:

Just as in any other case, you define the picker argument and connect the callback function.

import seaborn as sns
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

def onpick(event):
    # ... process selected item
    print("Picked!")

tips = sns.load_dataset("tips")
ax = sns.scatterplot(x="total_bill", y="tip", hue="time", data=tips, picker=4)

ax.figure.canvas.mpl_connect("pick_event", onpick)

plt.show()
