Could someone please explain how to change the font properties for a colorbar tick label, the following causes no error, but it does NOT work:
## CREATE COLORBAR ## make a copy of the image object im2 = copy.copy(im) im2.set_cmap(colmap) ## create new axis for colorbar. cax = plt.axes([l+w+0.03, b, 0.025, h-0.035]) cb = plt.colorbar(im2, cax)#, format='%3.2g') # draw colorbar ## set colorbar label and ticks p_cax = mpl.font_manager.FontProperties(size='6') clabels = clevs[::10] ##clevs, by 10 steps clabels.append(clevs[-1]) ## add the last label cb.ax.set_yticks(np.linspace(0,1,len(clabels))) cb.ax.set_yticklabels(['%3.2g' % cl for cl in clabels], fontproperties=p_cax) cax.set_title('sensitivity\n(%s)' % units, fontproperties=p_cax) NOTE: It does set the title properties correctly. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/colorbar-tick-label-fontproperties-tp25530779p25530779.html Sent from the matplotlib - users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
