Matplotlib is a library in Python and it is numerical ā€“ mathematical extension for NumPy library. The Axes Class contains most of the figure elements: Axis, Tick, Line2D, Text, Polygon, etc., and sets the coordinate system. And the instances of Axes supports callbacks through a callbacks attribute.

matplotlib.axes.Axes.get_title() Function

The Axes.get_title() function in axes module of matplotlib library is used to Get an axes title.

Syntax: Axes.get_title(self, loc=ā€™centerā€™)

Parameters: This method accepts the following parameters.

  • loc : This parameter is an optional parameter and it is used for Which title to get.

Return: This function return the title text string.

Below examples illustrate the matplotlib.axes.Axes.get_title() function in matplotlib.axes:

Example 1:




# Implementation of matplotlib function
import os
from matplotlib import font_manager as fm, rcParams
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
Ā Ā Ā 
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
Ā Ā Ā 
fpath = os.path.join(rcParams["datapath"],Ā 
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā "fonts / ttf / cmr10.ttf")
prop = fm.FontProperties(fname = fpath)
fname = os.path.split(fpath)[1]
ax.set_title('Title with special font: {}'.format(fname),
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā fontproperties = prop, fontsize = 14)
Ā Ā 
w = ax.get_title()
ax.text(0.2, 0.6, "Previously assigned title : \n\n"+str(w),
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā fontsize = 14)
ax.set_title("matplotlib.axes.Axes.get_title() \
function Example\n", fontweight ="bold")
plt.show()


Output:

Example 2:




# Implementation of matplotlib function
import numpy as np

Ā Ā Ā 
x = np.arange(0.1, 5, 0.1)
y = np.exp(-x)
Ā Ā Ā 
yerr = 0.1 + 0.1 * np.sqrt(x)
Ā Ā Ā 
fig, (ax, ax1) = plt.subplots(nrows = 1,

ax.set_title('Title of Axes 1', fontweight ="bold")
Ā Ā Ā 
ax1.errorbar(x, y, yerr = yerr, errorevery = 5,
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā color ="green")
ax1.set_title('Title of Axes 2', fontweight ="bold")
Ā Ā 
w = ax.get_title()
ww = ax1.get_title()
ax.set_title("")
ax1.set_title("")
Ā Ā 
ax.set_xlabel(w)
ax1.set_xlabel(ww)
Ā Ā 
fig.suptitle("Previously assigned title of each Axes is\
Ā used at labels\n", fontweight ="bold")
plt.show()
