How to position and align a Matplotlib figure legend?
To position and align a matplotlib figure legend, we can take the following steps−
- Plot line1 and line2 using plot() method.
- Place a legend on the figure. Use bbox_to_anchor to set the position and make horizontal alignment of the legend elements.
- To display the figure, use show() method.
Example
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt plt.rcParams["figure.figsize"] = [7.00, 3.50] plt.rcParams["figure.autolayout"] = True line1, = plt.plot([1, 5, 1, 7], linewidth=0.7) line2, = plt.plot([5, 1, 7, 1], linewidth=2.0) plt.legend([line1, line2], ["line1", "line2"], bbox_to_anchor=(0.45, 1.0), ncol=2) plt.show()
