Drawing multiple legends on the same axes in Matplotlib
To draw multiple legends on the same axes in Matplotlib, we can take the following steps −
- Set the figure size and adjust the padding between and around the subplots
- Plot lines using two lists with different labels, linewidth and linestyle.
- Place the first legend at the upper-right location.
- Add artist, i.e., first legend on the current axis.
- Place the second legend on the current axis at the lower-right location.
- To display the figure, use show() method.
Example
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt plt.rcParams["figure.figsize"] = [7.50, 3.50] plt.rcParams["figure.autolayout"] = True line1, = plt.plot([1, 2, 3], label="Line 1", linestyle='--') line2, = plt.plot([3, 2, 1], label="Line 2", linewidth=4) first_legend = plt.legend(handles=[line1], loc='upper right') plt.gca().add_artist(first_legend) plt.legend(handles=[line2], loc='lower right') plt.show()
