Introduction to Fraunhofer Corporate Design Plots

This repository provides functions for quickly transforming Plotly and Matplotlib plots to adhere to the Fraunhofer Corporate Design.

How to Use

Matplotlib

Import the module: Start by importing fhgcd_plots.main into your script.

Set the template: Use set_matplotlib_style(style, colors) to set the desired style and color.

Possible styles:

grid
darkgrid
greengrid
scientific

Possible color options:
official
colorful
rainbow

Plotly

In plotly graph objects first the figure needs to be generated and afterwards the function “fig.update_layout(template = fhgCD.get_plotly_template(style, color_cycle))” needs to be run. In plotly express the template needs to be specified when creating the plot with “px.scatter(df, template=fhgCD.get_plotly_template(“scientific”, “colorful”))”..

Possible styles:

grid
darkgrid
greengrid
scientific

Possible color options:
official
colorful

Using Colors Directly

To use the colors directly, import them from the fhgcd_plots.ISEcolors module.
