How to remove the first and last ticks label of each Y-axis subplot in Matplotlib?


To remove the first and last ticks label of each Y-axis subplot, we can take the following steps −

  • Set the figure size and adjust the padding between and around the subplots.

  • Create a figure and a set of subplots.

  • Iterate the axes and set the first and last ticklabel's visible=False.

  • To display the figure, use show() method.

Example

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

plt.rcParams["figure.figsize"] = [7.50, 3.50]
plt.rcParams["figure.autolayout"] = True

fig, ax = plt.subplots(2, sharex=True)

for a in ax:
   plt.setp(a.get_yticklabels()[0], visible=False)
   plt.setp(a.get_yticklabels()[-1], visible=False)

plt.show()
