自动定位matplotlib中的文本框

有没有一种方法可以像使用pyplot.legend()一样告诉pyplot.text()一个位置?

类似于传说的论证是非常好的:

plt.legend(loc="upper left")

我试图用字母(例如“A”、“B”)标记不同轴的子批次。我想应该有比手动估计位置更好的方法。

谢谢

这个问题已经很老了,但由于到目前为止(2019年)还没有一个通用的解决方案,根据Add loc=best kwarg to pyplot.text(),我使用legend()和以下解决方法来获得简单文本框的自动放置:

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import matplotlib.patches as mpl_patches

x = np.linspace(-1,1)
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.plot(x, x*x)

# create a list with two empty handles (or more if needed)
handles = [mpl_patches.Rectangle((0, 0), 1, 1, fc="white", ec="white", 
                                 lw=0, alpha=0)] * 2

# create the corresponding number of labels (= the text you want to display)
labels = []
labels.append("pi = {0:.4g}".format(np.pi))
labels.append("root(2) = {0:.4g}".format(np.sqrt(2)))

# create the legend, supressing the blank space of the empty line symbol and the
# padding between symbol and label by setting handlelenght and handletextpad
ax.legend(handles, labels, loc='best', fontsize='small', 
          fancybox=True, framealpha=0.7, 
          handlelength=0, handletextpad=0)
plt.show()

一般的想法是创建一个带有空行符号的图例,然后删除产生的空白。How to adjust the size of matplotlib legend box?帮助我设置图例格式。

Example plot with automatically positioned text box

我不确定这在我最初发布问题时是否可用,但现在可以使用loc参数了。下面是一个例子:

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from matplotlib.offsetbox import AnchoredText

# make some data
x = np.arange(10)
y = x

# set up figure and axes
f, ax = plt.subplots(1,1)

# loc works the same as it does with figures (though best doesn't work)
# pad=5 will increase the size of padding between the border and text
# borderpad=5 will increase the distance between the border and the axes
# frameon=False will remove the box around the text

anchored_text = AnchoredText("Test", loc=2)
ax.plot(x,y)
ax.add_artist(anchored_text)

plt.show()

enter image description here

只需使用annotate并指定轴坐标。例如,“左上”将是:

plt.annotate('Something', xy=(0.05, 0.95), xycoords='axes fraction')

您还可以获得更为美观的效果,并指定点的恒定偏移:

plt.annotate('Something', xy=(0, 1), xytext=(12, -12), va='top'
             xycoords='axes fraction', textcoords='offset points')
