lab74
lab74 is a Matplotlib style layer for scientific and institutional
figures in the technical print style of ca. 1965–1980.
The style uses fine rules, compact type, direct labels, monochrome textures, and one optional accent color. It does not add old-paper, film-grain, or other retro effects.
Installation
Install lab74 from PyPI:
pip install lab74
Requirements:
python>=3.12matplotlib>=3.8numpy>=1.26
Basic use
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import lab74
lab74.use()
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.plot(x, y)
ax.set(xlabel="Energy (GeV)", ylabel=r"$\sigma$ (nb)")
The use() function applies the style. The default style uses
the instrument accent and proportional technical text.
Use these options to change the color or the typeface:
lab74.use(accent="aerospace") # Use a different accent.
lab74.use(accent=None) # Use the monochrome line-series palette.
lab74.use(accent=None, face="mono") # Use monospaced text.
You can also apply the packaged Matplotlib style sheet:
plt.style.use(lab74.STYLE_PATH)
This method uses the default instrument accent.
Plot tools
lab74 includes small tools for annotations, error bars, grouped bars, hatched
regions, contours, maps, tables, ticks, frames, and multipanel layouts. These
tools return normal Matplotlib artists. Thus, you can change the result with
the Matplotlib API.
See src/lab74/ for all available tools and their docstrings.
