PR Summary

Follow up to #17008, which only went half-way, because it left the "bottom left" description in the summary sentence.

Additional improvements:

  • Added an ASCII image for illustration
  • Commented on the left/right bottom/top corner position of xy. IMHO the "bottom left" idea is helpful to imagine the rectangle, it just has to be taken with the caution of orientations.
    Also, we have get/set_x/y/xy methods which are all describe in the "bottom left" picture. I think it's ok to leave them as is if we have that picture put into perspective.
  • Moved the Patch properties from section Notes to Other Parameters.
  • Removed explicit documentation of fill because it's already documented via the Patch properties.

@timhoffm timhoffm added this to the v3.3.0 milestone Apr 4, 2020

Docs broke, but in an unrelated file, so I'm not sure why.

Summary really should be one line, if possible.

I think it is unhappy about this reference?

/home/circleci/project/lib/matplotlib/table.py:docstring of matplotlib.table.CustomCell:90: WARNING: py:obj reference target not found: Patch

but the location makes no sense...

Well it does make sense: Wonders of inherited docstrings.

Cell inherits from rectangle. And likely (I don‘t have code access right now) it reuses the docstring. However, Patch is not in the module table. The solution is to use `.Patch`. I will fix this later (or anybody can push that change).
