I have a 2 line title and first line has a number at the end of the line.
Can we plot a circle around the number?
Here is the code to generate the figure.
from matplotlib import rcParams
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
import os
rcParams.update({'figure.autolayout': True})
some_text = 'XXX'
any_number=15
title = '%s: %d\n YYY ZZZZ WWWWW' % (some_text,any_number)
fig = plt.figure(figsize=(8, 8), dpi=100)
plt.tick_params(axis='y', which='major', labelsize=60, width=3, length=10, pad=40)
plt.tick_params(axis='y', which='minor', labelsize=60, width=3, length=10, pad=40)
ax = plt.gca()
plt.title(title, fontsize=60, pad=40, loc='center', fontweight='semibold')
plt.style.use('ggplot')
ax.set_facecolor('white')
ax.spines['top'].set_visible(False)
ax.spines['right'].set_visible(False)
ax.spines['bottom'].set_visible(False)
ax.spines['left'].set_visible(True)
for edge_i in ['left']:
ax.spines[edge_i].set_edgecolor("black")
ax.spines[edge_i].set_linewidth(3)
ax.spines[edge_i].set_bounds(0, 1)
x = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
plt.yticks(np.arange(0, 1.01, step=0.2))
data_list= np.array([1,1,1,1,1,0.9, 0.8, 0.7, 0.8,0.85])
plt.bar(x, data_list, 0.9, color='indianred',edgecolor="black", linewidth=3,zorder=1)
plt.tick_params(
axis='x', # changes apply to the x-axis
which='both', # both major and minor ticks are affected
bottom=False, # ticks along the bottom edge are off
top=False, # ticks along the top edge are off
labelbottom=False) # labels along the bottom edge are off
figure_name = 'figure_with_circle.png'
figure_file = os.path.join('/Users/burcakotlu/Desktop',figure_name)
fig.savefig(figure_file, dpi=100, bbox_inches="tight")
plt.close(fig)
Here is the current figure and the wanted circle.
One could use the following without ax.bar():
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.set_title('title')
circle1 = plt.Circle((2,4.15), 0.2, color='k', clip_on=False, zorder=100, fill=False)
ax.add_patch(circle1)
ax.set_xlim(0,4)
ax.set_ylim(0,4)
plt.show()
I have found a way to plot circle together with bar plots without distorting bars. Here is the code below:
from matplotlib import rcParams
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
import os
import matplotlib.patches as patches
from matplotlib.offsetbox import AnchoredText
rcParams.update({'figure.autolayout': True})
some_text = 'XXX'
any_number=15
title = '%s: %d\n YYY ZZZZ WWWWW' % (some_text,any_number)
fig = plt.figure(figsize=(12,12), dpi=100)
plt.tick_params(axis='y', which='major', labelsize=60, width=3, length=10, pad=40)
plt.tick_params(axis='y', which='minor', labelsize=60, width=3, length=10, pad=40)
ax = plt.gca()
number_of_xxx = '12'
anchored_text_number_of_xxx = AnchoredText(number_of_xxx,
frameon=False, borderpad=0, pad=0.1,
loc='upper right',
bbox_to_anchor=[0.95, 1.3],
bbox_transform=plt.gca().transAxes,
prop={'fontsize': 60,
'fontweight': 'semibold'})
ax.add_artist(anchored_text_number_of_xxx)
circle1 = patches.Circle((0.88, 1.25), radius=0.1, transform=ax.transAxes, zorder=100, fill=False, color='gold', lw=8, clip_on=False)
ax.add_patch(circle1)
ax.set_title(title, fontsize=60, pad=40, loc='center', fontweight='semibold', zorder=50)
ax.set_facecolor('white')
ax.spines['top'].set_visible(False)
ax.spines['right'].set_visible(False)
ax.spines['bottom'].set_visible(False)
ax.spines['left'].set_visible(True)
for edge_i in ['left']:
ax.spines[edge_i].set_edgecolor("black")
ax.spines[edge_i].set_linewidth(3)
ax.spines[edge_i].set_bounds(0, 1)
x = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
ax.set_yticks(np.arange(0, 1.01, step=0.2))
data_list= np.array([1,1,1,1,1,0.9, 0.8, 0.7, 0.8,0.85])
ax.bar(x, data_list, 0.9, color='indianred',edgecolor="black", linewidth=3,zorder=1)
ax.tick_params(
axis='x', # changes apply to the x-axis
which='both', # both major and minor ticks are affected
bottom=False, # ticks along the bottom edge are off
top=False, # ticks along the top edge are off
labelbottom=False) # labels along the bottom edge are off
figure_name = 'figure_with_circle.png'
figure_file = os.path.join('/Users/burcakotlu/Desktop',figure_name)
fig.savefig(figure_file, dpi=100, bbox_inches="tight")
plt.close(fig)
I am looking for a custom colormap that highlights the center (value of 1) and just has white color at the edges (values of 0 and 2). Ideally there should be a gradient from 1 to [0, 2].
Usual colormaps do the opposite: diverges from center (white at center).
Thanks for your help
You can use the from_list method from LinearSegmentedColormap for this from the matplotlib.colors module.
Here, we give 3 colors as a list (["white", "red", "white"]). This can easily be customised by changing any of those color names.
For example:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from matplotlib.colors import LinearSegmentedColormap
import numpy as np
cmap = LinearSegmentedColormap.from_list('wrw', ["white", "red", "white"], N=256)
a = np.arange(0, 2, 0.01).reshape(20, 10)
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
p = ax.pcolormesh(a, cmap=cmap, vmin=0, vmax=2)
fig.colorbar(p)
plt.show()
You can create based on availbale colormaps from matplotlib.
from matplotlib.colors import ListedColormap
def show_cmap(ax, cmap):
n = 256
ax.imshow(np.tile(np.arange(n), [int(n*0.20),1]),
cmap=cmap,
interpolation="nearest", aspect="auto")
ax.set_xticks([])
ax.set_yticks([])
ax.set_xticklabels([])
ax.set_yticklabels([])
c1 = plt.cm.Blues(range(0, 128))
c2 = c1[::-1]
c = np.vstack([c1, c2])
cmap = ListedColormap(c)
fig, ax = plt.subplots(1, 1, figsize=(7.2, 7.2))
show_cmap(ax, cmap)
I do have a plot that only consists of horizontal lines at certain values when I have a signal, otherwise none. So, I am looking for a way to plot this without the vertical lines. there may be gaps between the lines when there is no signal and I dont want the lines to connect nor do I want a line falling off to 0. Is there a way to plot this like that in matplotlib?
self.figure = plt.figure()
self.canvas = FigureCanvas(self.figure)
axes = self.figure.add_subplot(111)
axes.plot(df.index, df["x1"], lw=1.0, c=self.getColour('g', i), ls=ls)
The plot you are looking for is Matplotlib's plt.hlines(y, xmin, xmax).
For example:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
y = range(1, 11)
xmin = range(10)
xmax = range(1, 11)
colors=['blue', 'green', 'red', 'yellow', 'orange', 'purple',
'cyan', 'magenta', 'pink', 'black']
fig, ax = plt.subplots(1, 1)
ax.hlines(y, xmin, xmax, colors=colors)
plt.show()
Yields a plot like this:
See the Matplotlib documentation for more details.
I have list of data want to plot on a subplot. Then I want to lable ylable with different set of colour. See the simple code example below:-
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.plot([1,2,3,4])
plt.ylabel('yellow red blue')
plt.show()
This produces the following image:-
In the resultant image ylable is named as 'yellow red blue' and all in black colour. But I would like to have this label coloured like this:-
'yellow' with yellow colour,
'red' with red colour
and 'blue' with blue colour.
Is it possible with matplotlib?
No. You can't do this with a single text object. You could manually add three different labels, i.e.:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.plot([1, 2, 3, 4])
ax = plt.gca()
ax.text(-0.1, 0.4, 'yellow', color='yellow', rotation=90, transform=ax.transAxes)
ax.text(-0.1, 0.5, 'red', color='red', rotation=90, transform=ax.transAxes)
ax.text(-0.1, 0.6, 'blue', color='blue', rotation=90, transform=ax.transAxes)
plt.show()
I'm trying to make a plot with one panel up top (colspan = 2) and two plots below, with a controlled amount of space between them. I'd like the bounds of the plots to be in alignment. Here's what I'm starting with:
import cartopy
from matplotlib import pyplot
from matplotlib.gridspec import GridSpec
gs = GridSpec(2, 2, height_ratios=[2, 1], hspace=0, wspace=0)
ax0 = pyplot.subplot(gs[0, :], projection=cartopy.crs.LambertConformal())
ax0.add_feature(cartopy.feature.COASTLINE)
ax0.set_extent([-120, -75, 20, 52], cartopy.crs.Geodetic())
ax1 = pyplot.subplot(gs[1, 0], projection=cartopy.crs.LambertConformal())
ax1.add_feature(cartopy.feature.COASTLINE)
ax1.set_extent([-90, -75, 20, 30], cartopy.crs.Geodetic())
ax2 = pyplot.subplot(gs[1, 1], projection=cartopy.crs.LambertConformal())
ax2.add_feature(cartopy.feature.COASTLINE)
ax2.set_extent([-90, -75, 20, 30], cartopy.crs.Geodetic())
pyplot.show()
First problem is that the wspace=0 parameter doesn't take.
Second problem is (at least this is my guess on how to proceed) calculating a height ratio that will make the width of the upper subplot equal the combined width of the lower subplots (plus any wspace).
