My apologies for two totally noob questions, but I can't quite seem to find these in the docs; a pointer would be great... 1. I would like to position a legend outside of the main plot area. The positioning part works great, but the legend is clipped to the pre-existing figure dimensions; how

[Matplotlib-users] making multi panel figures

I have about 140 lines of code that makes a map. I'd like to turn it into a program which makes a multiple panel (map) figure. I understand that subplot will help to do this. Ideally I would like the 140 lines to be like a subroutine called in a loop. In the current code there are two variable

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Horizontal bar chart with log x-axis, no filled boxes

I think this is because the bar is going from zero to your value, so the left edge of the rectangle becomes log(0). I see this when using the 'k' and 'l' keys to interactively put a histogram on a log scale. Passing in log=True for hist fixes this. I'm sure there's something similar that can be don

[Matplotlib-users] Horizontal bar chart with log x-axis, no filled boxes

I'm running into something odd in Matplotlib 1.1. In drawing a horizontal bar chart (barh), if the x-axis scale is set to log, the rectangles are not drawn and filled; I just get small ticks at the right-hand position where the rectangle should end. Interestingly, if I add a second, stacked ba

I know this is an old post, but just in case. For arrowstyle="<->", they are just lines (well, not exactly as a matter of fact). So, what you need is to change their linewidths. You may do arrow1=pylab.annotate("", xytext=(0.1,0.1),                       xy=(0.9,0.9),fontsize=8, arrowprops=dict
