subplot_fit_ellipse(fit_list, output_path=None, output_format=None, colormap='default', use_log10=False, disable_data_contours=False, title_prefix=None)[source]#

Create a two-panel subplot summarising a list of ellipse fits.

The left panel shows the 2-D image with fitted ellipse contours overlaid (via _plot_data); the right panel shows the 1-D residuals as a function of position angle (via _plot_ellipse_residuals).

Parameters:
  • fit_list (list of FitEllipse) – The ellipse fits to visualise.

  • output_path (str or None) – Directory in which to save the figure. Noneplt.show().

  • output_format (str) – File format, e.g. "png".

  • colormap (str) – Matplotlib colormap name, or "default".

  • use_log10 (bool) – Apply a log₁₀ stretch to the image values in the left panel.

  • disable_data_contours (bool) – If True, suppress ellipse contour overlays on the image panel.
