# Axis line styles

This example shows some configurations for axis style.

    from mpl_toolkits.axisartist.axislines import SubplotZero
    import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
    import numpy as np

    if 1:
        fig = plt.figure(1)
        ax = SubplotZero(fig, 111)
        fig.add_subplot(ax)

        for direction in ["xzero", "yzero"]:
            # adds arrows at the ends of each axis
            ax.axis[direction].set_axisline_style("-|>")

            # adds X and Y-axis from the origin
            ax.axis[direction].set_visible(True)

        for direction in ["left", "right", "bottom", "top"]:
            # hides borders
            ax.axis[direction].set_visible(False)

        x = np.linspace(-0.5, 1., 100)
        ax.plot(x, np.sin(x*np.pi))

        plt.show()
