I'm trying to make a figure with six subplots, here's what I've managed so far: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/136038/bar-00-protagonist.png That's actually done with two subplots (the top row and the bottom row) and what looks almost like 3 separate pairs of axes in each row is actually just one pair o

[Matplotlib-users] Show shapes on scatterplot legend?

2008-02-28 Thread chombee
I'm making some scatter plots which will probably end up getting printed in black and white. I'm actually drawing two scatter plots onto one axes. So to the distinguish between the two plots I've had them use different marker shapes and different shades of grey. The problem is that the legend disp

Okay I see what's going on now. The output from axis('tight') specifies the limits of the two axes: > (-0.33718689788053952, > 7.0809248554913298, > -0.34782608695652173, > 7.3043478260869561) As you can see it's actually setting negative minimum limits for both axes, which is why the axes ar

I'm having a couple of problems drawing a basic relational scatter plot. (Specifically, it's called a dot-dash-plot in the book I have and is described as "framing the bivariate scatter with the marginal distribution of each variable.") The idea is that you have a bivariate scatter plot and use the

My legend shows both plots as the same colour (blue) when in fact they are different colours. Here's the relevant code: font = FontProperties(size='small'); ... b1 = bar(i,lowermeans,width,color='b') b2 = bar(i+width,uppermeans,width,color='y') ... legend((b1,b2

Could anyone advise me or give me an example of how to prevent a legend from obscuring a plot, or how I could do this better: http://www.23hq.com/seanh/photo/2862125/view-large I tried moving the legend out of the way using (x,y) coords but if I move it out of the axes viewport it also moves out
