<p>A backend-independent abstraction of a figure container and controller.</p>
<p>The figure manager is used by pyplot to interact with the window in a
backend-independent way. It's an adapter for the real (GUI) framework that
represents the visual figure on screen.</p>
<p>GUI backends define from this class to translate common operations such
as <em>show</em> or <em>resize</em> to the GUI-specific code. Non-GUI backends do not
support these operations an can just use the base class.</p>
<p>This following basic operations are accessible:</p>
<p><strong>Window operations</strong></p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><a class="reference internal" href="#matplotlib.backend_bases.FigureManagerBase.show" title="matplotlib.backend_bases.FigureManagerBase.show"><code class="xref py py-obj docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">show</span></code></a></li>
<li><a class="reference internal" href="#matplotlib.backend_bases.FigureManagerBase.destroy" title="matplotlib.backend_bases.FigureManagerBase.destroy"><code class="xref py py-obj docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">destroy</span></code></a></li>
<li><a class="reference internal" href="#matplotlib.backend_bases.FigureManagerBase.full_screen_toggle" title="matplotlib.backend_bases.FigureManagerBase.full_screen_toggle"><code class="xref py py-obj docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">full_screen_toggle</span></code></a></li>
<li><a class="reference internal" href="#matplotlib.backend_bases.FigureManagerBase.resize" title="matplotlib.backend_bases.FigureManagerBase.resize"><code class="xref py py-obj docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">resize</span></code></a></li>
<li><a class="reference internal" href="#matplotlib.backend_bases.FigureManagerBase.get_window_title" title="matplotlib.backend_bases.FigureManagerBase.get_window_title"><code class="xref py py-obj docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">get_window_title</span></code></a></li>
<li><a class="reference internal" href="#matplotlib.backend_bases.FigureManagerBase.set_window_title" title="matplotlib.backend_bases.FigureManagerBase.set_window_title"><code class="xref py py-obj docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">set_window_title</span></code></a></li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Key and mouse button press handling</strong></p>
<p>The figure manager sets up default key and mouse button press handling by
hooking up the <a class="reference internal" href="#matplotlib.backend_bases.key_press_handler" title="matplotlib.backend_bases.key_press_handler"><code class="xref py py-obj docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">key_press_handler</span></code></a> to the matplotlib event system. This
ensures the same shortcuts and mouse actions across backends.</p>
<p><strong>Other operations</strong></p>
<p>Subclasses will have additional attributes and functions to access
additional functionality. This is of course backend-specific. For example,
most GUI backends have <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">window</span></code> and <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">toolbar</span></code> attributes that give
access to the native GUI widgets of the respective framework.</p>
