[Matplotlib-users] Multiple Y Axes redux

Hi there, I know this has been discussed in the past, but I was looking through some of the history and I'm not sure what the exact situation is. I think multiple y axes on the same side of the graph is unsupported officially, but can be hacked together somehow, is that right? Is there an exampl

[Matplotlib-users] Making an Axis Label like a legend

Hello again, I've got a question about axis labels, specifically y axis labels for multiple lines. What I'd ideally like to do is take something like the legends shown in the attached picture, rotate them 90 degrees counter clockwise, then stick them to the left of the Y axes to use it as a label

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Making an Axis Label like a legend

Hmm I think I could do this with TextWithDash, but I can't manage to use it... I go: CumGasTxt = fig.text(0.5, 0.5, 'Cumulative Gas (MCF)', withdash=True) and it says "AttributeError: Unknown property withdash". I tried changing "fig" to "ax1", but although that doesn't spit out an error, it d

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Making an Axis Label like a legend

Ah, perfect, I wasn't seeing the labels when I was calling it with ax because I was still using .5, .5 for the location and that was off the screen. Thanks a lot! Alex Matthias Michler wrote: > > On Tuesday 09 March 2010 21:10:49 Alex S wrote: >> Hmm I think I could do this

[Matplotlib-users] Making tick marks of a secondary axis line up with the primary axis

Hi there, I'm trying to make a plot with two y axes. I'm able to do that no problem, but what I'd really like to do now is make the tick marks line up for them both so that they both use the same grid. Is there a simple way to do this? Basically, I want to force the number of tick marks on the

[Matplotlib-users] xlim with dates

Hi there, does anyone know if there's a simple way to set an axis limit to a date? "viewlim_to_dt()" looks promising, but I can't figure out how to use it... Thanks a lot, Alex -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/xlim-with-dates-tp27881612p27881612.html Sent from the matplot

[Matplotlib-users] Changing the font

Hi there, I'm trying to change the font default on my graph to New Century Schoolbook. I'm trying to do this by editing the matplotlibrc file. Unfortunately, although I'm able to change the font.family, I can't figure out how to make it use something other than the default in the family... I tr

Hi, sorry I wasn't too clear... I changed that, but I don't seem to be able to choose between the different serif fonts, it just always gives me the default... Alex S wrote: > > Hi there, > I'm trying to change the font default on my graph to New Century > Schoolb

[Matplotlib-users] Not using exponents on y-axis of log graphs

Hi there, I've got a program that generates a bunch of plots with logarithmic charts. Matplotlib handles them great, but it seems to by default label the y axis ticks 10^0, 10^1, 10^2 etc. Is there an way to make it spell out these numbers instead (ie 1, 10, 100 etc)? I guess I could make cust

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Not using exponents on y-axis of log graphs

Ah thank you very much, that works fine except for decimals... (.1, .01, .001 etc all show as 0). Is there a way to show these as well (preferably without showing all the rest of the numbers as 1.000, 10.000, 100.000)? Sorry if this is a very newbie question... I don't know what symbol does wh

[Matplotlib-users] Font not carrying through Py2Exe

Hi there, I've made a program that makes plots using New Century Schoolbook Lt Std font. I did this by inserting this into the matplotlibrc file: font.family : New Century Schoolbook LT Std # serif #sans-serif There's also a "fontlist.cache" file that I think points to it when it says:
