Please consider:

    twinx()
    plot([11, 12, 11, 14], label='line 2')
    legend()


will draw only label for 'line 2'

    plot([1, 2, 3, 4], label='line 1')
    legend()
    twinx()
    plot([11, 12, 11, 14], label='line 2')
    legend()


same result, as it will overwrite label 'line 1' with label 'line 2'

How to deal with this, without manually positioning legends and if possible including all annotated plot lines in one legend?


Thanks


I would do something like

   from matplotlib import pylab

   LegendText = []

   pylab.twinx() # << had to move before first plot else it blew up

   pylab.plot([1, 2, 3, 4] )
   LegendText.append('line 1')

   pylab.plot([11, 12, 11, 14])
   LegendText.append('line 2')

   pylab.legend( LegendText , loc='lower right')

   pylab.show()


Don't know if there is a better way
