I would like to have a "light theme" for my plots to be "PDF-friendly" in manim v.0.18.0. Thus, the background should be white and the plot itself with the labels should be black. I am able to achieve most of this using the following code.
from manim import *
class WhiteThemeExample(Scene):
def construct(self):
self.camera.background_color = WHITE
point = -3 + 4j
plane = ComplexPlane(x_range=(-4, 4, 1), y_range=(-1, 5, 1), axis_config={"color": BLACK})
self.add(plane)
dot = Dot(plane.n2p(point), color=ORANGE)
label = MathTex("-3+4i", color=BLACK).next_to(dot, UR, 0.1)
self.add(dot, label)
plane.add_coordinates()
origin = Dot(plane.n2p(0 + 0j), color=BLACK)
line = Line(origin, dot, color=BLACK)
self.add(origin, line)
This is run using
manim render -pqh -s .\plot.py WhiteThemeExample
The result is this: the axis labels are still white.
Manim complex plane plot with white labels:
How can I change these labels to be black?
I've tried passing color
, fill_color
, stroke_color
to axis_config
, x_axis_config
, and decimal_number_config
to ComplexPlane
's constructor but no luck (or maybe I'm doing it wrong).
Correct answer was provided by @CodingWithMagga :
class WhiteThemeExample(Scene):
def construct(self):
self.camera.background_color = WHITE
point = -3 + 4j
plane = ComplexPlane(x_range=(-4, 4, 1), y_range=(-1, 5, 1), axis_config={"color": BLACK})
self.add(plane)
dot = Dot(plane.n2p(point), color=ORANGE)
label = MathTex("-3+4i", color=BLACK).next_to(dot, UR, 0.1)
self.add(dot, label)
# these two lines are the answer
labels = plane.get_coordinate_labels().set_color(BLACK)
self.add(labels)
origin = Dot(plane.n2p(0 + 0j), color=BLACK)
line = Line(origin, dot, color=BLACK)
self.add(origin, line)
