Quick start

• Render an animation: 3b1b:SquareToCircle

  from manimlib import *
  from manim_express import GlEagerScene
  
  scene = GlEagerScene()
  circle = Circle()
  circle.set_fill(BLUE, opacity=0.5)
  circle.set_stroke(BLUE_E, width=4)
  
  square = Square()
  scene.show_creation(square)
  scene.play(ReplacementTransform(square, circle))
  
  scene.hold_on()
  

  Operating graphics:

  • hold down the d key or mouse left on the keyboard and move the mouse to change the three-dimensional perspective.
  • hold down the s key or mouse right on the keyboard and move the mouse to pan the screen
  • hold down the z or ctrl on the keyboard while scrolling the middle mouse button to zoom the screen
  • scroll the middle mouse button to move the screen up and down
  • reset camera view by pressing r
  • close the window and exit the program by pressing q or tab
  • pause the animation by pressing space or ctrl or alt
  • previews animation clip by pressing LEFT
  • next animation clip: RIGHT
  • replay current animation clip: DOWN

• manim_express vs Matplotlib:
  Eager mode usage:

  from manimlib import *
  from manim_express import GlEagerScene
  CONFIG.use_online_tex = True # If you don't have installed latex locally.
  theta = np.linspace(0, 2*np.pi, 200)
  x = np.cos(theta)
  y = np.sin(theta)
  
  scene = GlEagerScene()
  scene.plot(x, y, color=GREEN, width=2, scale_ratio=1)
  scene.show_plot()
  scene.hold_on()
  

  Object oriented usage:

  from manimlib import *
  from manim_express import GlEagerScene
  from sklearn.datasets import make_multilabel_classification 
  class ScatterExample(GlEagerScene):
      def clip_1(self):
          X1, y1 =make_multilabel_classification(n_samples=200, n_classes=4, n_features=2)
          X2, y2 =make_multilabel_classification(n_samples=200, n_classes=4, n_features=2)
          self.scatter2d(X1[:, 0], X1[:, 1], size=.05, color=BLUE)
          self.scatter2d(X2[:, 0], X2[:, 1], size=.05, color=YELLOW)
  
  ScatterExample().render()
  

  It should be noted that manim is not suitable for drawing patterns that need to be accurately realized!
