Subject: Re: [Matplotlib-users] zoomed in detail box
To: Jae-Joon Lee <lee.j.j...@gmail.com>
Hi everyone!
I'm also trying to do a detailed zoomed area of my plot, but I can't manage
to put the box in the position I want, bbox_to_anchor didn't work in my
case:
axins =
zoomed_inset_axes(ax,3,loc=2,bbox_to_anchor=(0,0,0.5,0.5),bbox_transform=ax.transAxes)
This bbox_to_anchor tuple is just an example. I only want to move the
zoomed box a little to the right, since the ticklabels overlap.
Any idea?
I really appreciate your help!
