Paul, That example is an overly complicated template for making a pareto chart. Here's how I'd do it: # data defects = [0, 32, 22, 15, 5, 2] labels = ['', 'vertical', 'horizontal', 'behind', 'left area', 'other'] # axes fig, ax1 = plt.subplots() ax2 = ax1.twinx() # plotting ax1.bar(np.arange(len(defects))-0.4, defects, zorder=0, alpha=0.5) ax2.plot(np.cumsum(defects), linestyle='-', color='k', linewidth=2, zorder=5) # formatting ax1.set_xticks(np.arange(len(defects))) ax1.set_xticklabels(labels) ax1.set_ylabel('Defects') ax2.set_ylabel('Percentage') plt.show() ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 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.
