Saving figures¶
All interactive figures have wrappers provide an interface for saving to
images that is similar to Matplotlib (i.e. savefig()):
from qiskit import QuantumCircuit
import kaleidoscope.qiskit
from kaleidoscope.interactive import bloch_disc
qc = QuantumCircuit(1)
qc.h(0)
qc.tdg(0)
state = qc.statevector()
fig = bloch_disc(state)
fig.savefig('bloch_disc.png')
The figure size (in pixels rather than inches as in MPL), and transparency can also be set.
In addition, for formats like png the scale parameter can be set to increase the
physical resolution.
fig.savefig('bloch_disc.png', figsize=(800,600), scale=3, transparent=True)
Exporting as other formats¶
Because kaleidoscope.interactive.plotly_wrapper.PlotlyFigure and
kaleidoscope.interactive.plotly_wrapper.PlotlyWidget are wrappers over their
Plotly counterparts, all of the original functionality still exists. The
wrappers have the original figure instance as the attribute PlotlyFigure._fig,
which can be used to do things like write an image to HTML:
fig._fig.write_html('bloch_disc.html')
