Thanks for the link! Although, it seems that legend does not support
PolyCollection at all:
"Remember that some pyplot commands return artist not supported by
legend, e.g., fill_between() returns PolyCollection that is not
supported."
so that even trying to use a proxy artist results in an error (shown
at bottom), with the code here:
------------------------------
listOfThingsPlotted = []
listOfLegendLabels = []
for column in sorted(yValues):
temp = ax.fill_between(xValues, yValues[column], label=column)
listOfThingsPlotted.append(temp)
listOfLegendLabels.append(column)
legend = plt.legend
(listOfThingsPlotted,listOfLegendLabels,bbox_to_anchor=(1.25, 1),
shadow=True, fancybox=True)
------------------------------
Error:
