[Matplotlib-users] clabel return values
Is the list of return values from the clabel() function supposed to
represent the position and orientation of the contour labels? I have a
script below where I try to re-draw the contour labels using the Text
objects in the list returned from clabel(), and they do not line up in
my output. I'm using Matplotlib version 0.98.5.1, revision 6622.
If this is intentional, is there some way of retrieving the actual
position/orientation of the contour labels? I'm trying to make a
drop-shadow effect for those labels, and I need to know where they are
exactly for my code to work.
Sample script:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import matplotlib
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.cm as cm
import matplotlib.mlab as mlab
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import math
matplotlib.rcParams['xtick.direction'] = 'out'
matplotlib.rcParams['ytick.direction'] = 'out'
delta = 0.025
x = np.arange(-3.0, 3.0, delta)
y = np.arange(-2.0, 2.0, delta)
X, Y = np.meshgrid(x, y)
Z1 = mlab.bivariate_normal(X, Y, 1.0, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0)
Z2 = mlab.bivariate_normal(X, Y, 1.5, 0.5, 1, 1)
# difference of Gaussians
Z = 10.0 * (Z2 - Z1)
f=plt.figure(facecolor='g')
ax = plt.gca()
ax.set_axis_bgcolor('g')
CS = plt.contour(X, Y, Z)
xt = plt.xticks()
yt = plt.yticks()
fontsize = 10
fontdict2 = {'fontweight':'light',
'color': 'r',
'fontsize':fontsize}
labels = plt.clabel(CS, inline=1, fontsize=fontsize,colors='k')
for label in labels:
ltext = label.get_text()
lrot = label.get_rotation()
lx,ly = label.get_position()
plt.text(lx,ly,ltext,fontdict2,rotation=lrot)
plt.savefig('output.png')

Re: [Matplotlib-users] clabel return values
I guess you're missing vertical and horizontal alignment.
Also, your font properties were not set correctly. The 4th argument of
the text function is a color.
fontdict2 = {'fontweight':'light',
'color': 'r',
'fontsize':fontsize}
fp = FontProperties(fontdict2)
labels = plt.clabel(CS, inline=1, fontsize=fontsize,colors='k')
for label in labels:
ltext = label.get_text()
lx,ly = label.get_position()
lrot=label.get_rotation()
va, ha = label.get_va(), label.get_ha()
t = plt.text(lx,ly,ltext, fontproperties=fp,
rotation=lrot,va=va, ha=ha)
You may simply use update_from() method.
Anyhow, I'm not sure if you can put dorpshadow effect this way.
Changing font weight usually changes the overall size of each glyph.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] clabel return values
Jae-Joon - Thank you for your suggestion. I wasn't aware I needed the
alignments.
However, when I try your sample code in my script, I get a sequence of
rendering errors if I use show() or savefig():

Re: [Matplotlib-users] clabel return values
I can't reproduce the error and I guess it is back end specific.
Anyhow, the fontproperties object were created incorrectly and this
may be cause of the problem. I just thought your original dictionary
was in a correct form.
So, test your code w/o fontproperties and see if your text is placed
in a correct position. Then you need to create the fontproperties in a
correct way.
Please take a look at FontProperties document and revise your code accordingly.
It should be something like
FontProperties(weight=light, size=fontsize)
There is no fontweight keyword. And the color needs to be specified as
a parameters of the text function.
I don't have much clue on how font selection work in the mpl, but you
may need some tweaking on that.
