[Feature Request]: Plot directly onto a matplotlib axis

[edridgedsouza]

Libraries like seaborn allow you to add simple plots onto preexisting matplotlib objects. For simple, non-faceted ggplots, there should be a way to add them directly onto an existing matplotlib figure by specifying the axis to plot on. This allows for a high degree of customization in building subplots.

Hi, I can't see the thread on GitHub, but I'm replying by email. I don't quite mean what's in the linked example. In the example, you build a base figure in ggplot and extend off of that. However, I want to be able to add simple ggplot figures onto already-existing figure objects. While the linked method makes it easy to put a ggplot in the first row, first column, it makes it hard to put it anywhere else. For simple plots that don't involve faceting, it could be possible to simply include a parameter for which axis you want to plot it on. Thank you, Edridge D'Souza
