As I understand it, you can add a name to a patch:
p.patch([1,2,3,4], [1,2,3,4], name=‘single_patch’)
and you can add a name to a patches object:
p.patches([[1,2,3,4], [1,2,3,4],], [[6,7,8,9], [6,7,8,9]], name=‘list_of_patches’)
However, is there a way to name each patch of a list of patches?
p.patches([[1,2,3,4], [1,2,3,4],], [[6,7,8,9], [6,7,8,9]], name=[‘first_patch’, ‘second_patch’])
The use case is that is makes selecting individual patches easier. So, in the case of a USA county map, I can name each patch according to its county name and then when I need to update some information for a given county then I can select for it directly.
