Hi, I reattached your example in a slightly modified way. For me with current svn it does its job. The key points are that I introduced a twin-axes and used subplots_adjust(wspace=0.6) to extend the horizontal space between the subplots. Does this help you? Kind regards Matthias On

Hi All, I'm trying to create a set of strip charts so that I can see the relationships between a large number of time series. I'd like to label the y-axis with a name on the left side and a value/percentile on the right hand side. I can get the names on the left axis, and it looks very nice

You could perhaps use 6 subplots, and place the titles manually. Something like suptitle(r'Top title', y=0.95) suptitle(r'Bottom title', y=0.05) Thanks, that worked very well. I got the plot that I wanted and with much tidier source code:

Thanks John. The bar_stacked example does not seem to work for histograms, but I'm glad to know that we could manually make the legends. I still do not know how to specify the colors of the stacks in my histogram, so adding the manual legends for them is still a pain -- but at least doable
