There isn't a way to do this in matplotlib itself -- none of the text matplotlib draws is interactive and selectable etc.
However, if you're embedded matplotlib in a wxPython GUI, you could stick a wxPython text widget underneath the plotting canvas and put whatever text you need there. The details of that are more of a wxPython issue than a matplotlib one -- but you can see a number of examples of embedding matplotlib inside of a wxPython GUI here: http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/user_interfaces/index.html Cheers, Mike Stefanie Lück wrote: > Hello! > > I'm new to matplotlib and want to draw a line chart.
