Re: [Matplotlib-users] Legend orientation and layout
Gerardo == Gerardo Rivera [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Gerardo Hi, I'm currently using matplotlib with Plone/Zope to Gerardo generate some graphics for temperature, wind speed and Gerardo wind direction based on some data from Lake Tahoe. Gerardo However, the currently layout of the legends box really Gerardo restricts me from displaying the full set of data points Gerardo on one graph. Gerardo Currently the legend layout is displayed as: Gerardo line1_color label1 line2_color label2 line3_color label3 Gerardo ... Gerardo we want horizontal layout: Gerardo line1_color label1 line2_color label2 line3_color label3 Gerardo ... Gerardo Also placing the horizontal layout below the x-axis title Gerardo would be ideal. Gerardo Is there a way to create the horizontal layout in the Gerardo current version of matplotlib?

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Legend orientation and layout
John, Thanks for the information. I might start looking at the code and see if I can make any changes. If I'm successful then I'll submit these as patches.

How can I change this? - when plots are in '-' Lionel style without markers, the lines are not shown in the Lionel legend, I just have text. thanks -- Lionel Roubeyrie - Lionel [EMAIL PROTECTED] LIMAIR http://www.limair.asso.fr Make sure you pass in a list of strings, and not a single string. If you have just a single string, it interprets it as a list of characters. JDH s = 'mylabel' line, = plot(something) legend([line], [s]) Note the comma in line, = plot(something) which performs tuple unpacking of a list of lines. plot returns a list of lines, so you could also do lines = plot(something) legend(lines, [s]) but not lines = plot(something) legend(lines, s) because then you have a list of lines and a sequence of characters.

I'm not sure what you are trying to do here. How about ax = subplot(111) ax.plot([1,2,3], '-', label='a line') ax.legend() JDH - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
