    <p>Paul's answer is a perfectly fine method of doing this. </p> <p>However, if you don't want to make a custom transform, you can just use two subplots to create the same effect.</p> <p>Rather than put together an example from scratch, there's <a href="https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/blob/master/examples/pylab_examples/broken_axis.py" rel="noreferrer">an excellent example of this written by Paul Ivanov</a> in the matplotlib examples (It's only in the current git tip, as it was only committed a few months ago. It's not on the webpage yet.). </p> <p>This is just a simple modification of this example to have a discontinuous x-axis instead of the y-axis. (Which is why I'm making this post a CW)</p> <p>Basically, you just do something like this:</p> <pre><code>import matplotlib.pylab as plt import numpy as np # If you're not familiar with np.r_, don't worry too much about this. It's just # a series with points from 0 to 1 spaced at 0.1, and 9 to 10 with the same spacing. x = np.r_[0:1:0.1, 9:10:0.1] y = np.sin(x) fig,(ax,ax2) = plt.subplots(1, 2, sharey=True) # plot the same data on both axes ax.plot(x, y, 'bo') ax2.plot(x, y, 'bo') # zoom-in / limit the view to different portions of the data ax.set_xlim(0,1) # most of the data ax2.set_xlim(9,10) # outliers only # hide the spines between ax and ax2 ax.spines['right'].set_visible(False) ax2.spines['left'].set_visible(False) ax.yaxis.tick_left() ax.tick_params(labeltop='off') # don't put tick labels at the top ax2.yaxis.tick_right() # Make the spacing between the two axes a bit smaller plt.subplots_adjust(wspace=0.15) plt.show() </code></pre> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/usLNf.png" alt="enter image description here"></p> <p>To add the broken axis lines <code>//</code> effect, we can do this (again, modified from Paul Ivanov's example):</p> <pre><code>import matplotlib.pylab as plt import numpy as np # If you're not familiar with np.r_, don't worry too much about this. It's just # a series with points from 0 to 1 spaced at 0.1, and 9 to 10 with the same spacing. x = np.r_[0:1:0.1, 9:10:0.1] y = np.sin(x) fig,(ax,ax2) = plt.subplots(1, 2, sharey=True) # plot the same data on both axes ax.plot(x, y, 'bo') ax2.plot(x, y, 'bo') # zoom-in / limit the view to different portions of the data ax.set_xlim(0,1) # most of the data ax2.set_xlim(9,10) # outliers only # hide the spines between ax and ax2 ax.spines['right'].set_visible(False) ax2.spines['left'].set_visible(False) ax.yaxis.tick_left() ax.tick_params(labeltop='off') # don't put tick labels at the top ax2.yaxis.tick_right() # Make the spacing between the two axes a bit smaller plt.subplots_adjust(wspace=0.15) # This looks pretty good, and was fairly painless, but you can get that # cut-out diagonal lines look with just a bit more work. The important # thing to know here is that in axes coordinates, which are always # between 0-1, spine endpoints are at these locations (0,0), (0,1), # (1,0), and (1,1). Thus, we just need to put the diagonals in the # appropriate corners of each of our axes, and so long as we use the # right transform and disable clipping. d = .015 # how big to make the diagonal lines in axes coordinates # arguments to pass plot, just so we don't keep repeating them kwargs = dict(transform=ax.transAxes, color='k', clip_on=False) ax.plot((1-d,1+d),(-d,+d), **kwargs) # top-left diagonal ax.plot((1-d,1+d),(1-d,1+d), **kwargs) # bottom-left diagonal kwargs.update(transform=ax2.transAxes) # switch to the bottom axes ax2.plot((-d,d),(-d,+d), **kwargs) # top-right diagonal ax2.plot((-d,d),(1-d,1+d), **kwargs) # bottom-right diagonal # What's cool about this is that now if we vary the distance between # ax and ax2 via f.subplots_adjust(hspace=...) or plt.subplot_tool(), # the diagonal lines will move accordingly, and stay right at the tips # of the spines they are 'breaking' plt.show() </code></pre> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/kZ1T5.png" alt="enter image description here"></p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
