i can plot circle , straight arrow, how plot rotary arrow in specific angle?
you can draw circle , rotary arrow in matplotlib using sine/cosine, arc , arrow:
import math matplotlib.patches import arc import matplotlib.pyplot plt ax = plt.axes() x0, y0 = 0.5, 0.5 radius = 0.4 angle = 135 angle_rad = angle * math.pi / 180 # degrees radians # draw circle circle = plt.circle((x0,y0), radius, color='red', fill=false) fig = plt.gcf() fig.gca().add_artist(circle) # draw radius arrow head_length = 0.05 ax.arrow(x0, y0, (radius - head_length) * math.cos(angle_rad), (radius - head_length) * math.sin(angle_rad), head_width=0.05, head_length=head_length, fc='k', ec='k') # draw arc arrow. arc_radius = radius / 4 arc = arc((x0, y0), arc_radius*2, arc_radius*2, # ellipse width , height theta1=0, theta2=angle, linestyle='dashed') ax.add_patch(arc) arc_arrow_length = 0.03 arc_arrow_dx = arc_arrow_length * math.cos(angle_rad + math.pi / 2) arc_arrow_dy = arc_arrow_length * math.sin(angle_rad + math.pi / 2) ax.arrow( x0 + arc_radius * math.cos(angle_rad) - arc_arrow_dx, y0 + arc_radius * math.sin(angle_rad) - arc_arrow_dy, # want define vector, # don't want draw line besides arrow head, # make arrow "body" unnoticeable. arc_arrow_dx * 0.000001, arc_arrow_dy * 0.000001, head_width=0.01, head_length=0.03, color='black') plt.show() 
please note solution not cleanest, there better way draw arc , arrow @ once.
you may want try fancyarrowpatch draw nice arrow.
