axis order confution about python-ternary HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi Martin,

There's actually more than one way to label the axes on a ternary plot and it can be confusing. In the readme there is a section "Axes Ticks and Orientations" that discusses this. An arbitrary choice has to be made and the library operates as follows by default.

The default is left to right on the x coordinate and then up-right on the up-right axis, with the value of the second coordinate given by the horizontal line that intersects the right axis.

If you would like the points plotted differently the best option is to simply permute the points as needed.

Hi Marc

Thanks for your fast and good reply.

I'm not sure my question was clear enough. My problem is not with the
axis nor the labels, but the grid lines colour.

I'm busy with other work, the next few days. But I'll try to look into
your answer, any may risk to write you again later.

Best regards
Martin

In this case your code is supplying the colors and you can easily change them by altering the col_axes dictionary. See the colors reference list. For example you can swap red and green using col_axis = {'b': 'r', 'l': 'g', 'r':'b'} instead of col_axis = {'b': 'g', 'l': 'r', 'r':'b'}.
