There is some redundancy between them\r\n\r\nThe Lasso Demo explanation contains this off putting sentence:\r\n\r\n\u003e This is currently a proof-of-concept implementation (though it is usable as is). There will be some refinement of the API.\r\n\r\n\r\nFurthermore, despite both `Lasso` and `LassoSelector` being in `widgets.py` the `Lasso Demo` is under the Event Handling sections of the gallery - which I find confusing.\r\n\r\n https://matplotlib.org/3.3.2/gallery/widgets/lasso_selector_demo_sgskip.html and It not eas\r\n\r\n\r\n### Suggested Improvements\r\n\r\n1. Move `Lasso Demo` under the widgets examples\r\n2. remove the sentence about proof of concept implementation from Lasso Demo.\r\n3. Add a recommendation (and link to demo) to use `LassoSelector` for selecting points to the explanatory paragraph in `Lasso Demo`\r\n   - Both examples should probably cross reference eachother actually\r\n4. Create an example showcasing the difference between `Lasso` and `LassoSelector` (After a cursory read I don't see why I wouldn't always prefer the latter)\r\n\r\n**Matplotlib version**\r\n  * Matplotlib documentation version: devdocs/3.3.3","author":{"url":"https://github.com/ianhi","@type":"Person","name":"ianhi"},"datePublished":"2021-01-03T05:15:03.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":10},"url":"https://github.com/19221/matplotlib/issues/19221"}
