The solution from Alex might work, but not being optimal in saving space, in particular if you can share axis. The labels (a),(b),... can be inserted in the figures with a.text(x,y,'(a)', ... ). I know that some journals want them in the figure and not made with latex, so you probably have to rerun your script with the text added. If you want to make a unique figure you can try to declare the axis directly, insead of using subplot, and play with the rect keyword: http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/api/pyplot_api.html#matplotlib.pyplot.axes . You can also play with gridspec (http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/users/gridspec.html), but I've never used myself Cheers, Francesco ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
