Tweaking axis labels and names orientation for 3D plots in Matplotlib
To tweak axis labels and names orientation for 3D plots in matplotlib, we can take the following steps −
- Set the figure size and adjust the padding between and around the subplots.
- Create a new figure or activate an existing figure with facecolor=white.
- Get the current figure with 3d projection.
- Set X, Y and Z Axis labels with linespacing.
- Plot the data points using plot() method.
- Set the axis distance.
- 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 figure = plt.figure(facecolor='w') ax = figure.gca(projection='3d') xLabel = ax.set_xlabel('X-axis', linespacing=3.2) yLabel = ax.set_ylabel('Y-axis', linespacing=3.1) zLabel = ax.set_zlabel('Z-Axis', linespacing=3.4) plot = ax.plot([1, 2, 3], [1, 2, 3]) ax.dist = 10 plt.show()
