Matplotlib.axis.Axis.set_label_coords() function in Python

Matplotlib is a library in Python and it is numerical – mathematical extension for NumPy library. It is an amazing visualization library in Python for 2D plots of arrays and used for working with the broader SciPy stack.

Matplotlib.axis.Axis.set_label_coords() Function

The Axis.set_label_coords() function in axis module of matplotlib library is used to set the coordinates of the label.
 

Syntax: Axis.set_label_coords(self, x, y, transform=None)

Parameters: This method accepts the following parameters. 

  • x,y: These parameter are the coordinates of the label.

Return value: This method does not returns any value. 

Below examples illustrate the matplotlib.axis.Axis.set_label_coords() function in matplotlib.axis:

Example 1:

Python3




# Implementation of matplotlib function 
from matplotlib.axis import Axis
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
  
fig, ax2 = plt.subplots(sharex = True)
fig.subplots_adjust(left=0.2, wspace=0.6)
box = dict(facecolor='green', pad=5, alpha=0.2)
  
ax2.plot(20*np.random.rand(10))
ax2.set_xlabel('X - Label', bbox=box)
ax2.set_xlim(0, 10)
Axis.set_label_coords(ax2.xaxis, 0.5, 0.95)
  
fig.suptitle("Matplotlib.axis.Axis.set_label_coords()\
Function Example", fontsize = 12, fontweight ='bold'
  
plt.show()


Output: 

Example 2:

Python3




# Implementation of matplotlib function 
from matplotlib.axis import Axis
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
  
fig, (ax1, ax2) = plt.subplots(2, 1, sharex = True)
fig.subplots_adjust(left=0.2, wspace=0.6)
box = dict(facecolor='green', pad=5, alpha=0.2)
  
np.random.seed(19680801)
ax1.plot(2*np.random.rand(10))
ax1.set_title('Label is not aligned')
ax1.set_ylabel('Default', bbox=box)
ax1.set_ylim(0, 20)
  
ax2.set_title('\nLabel is aligned')
ax2.plot(20*np.random.rand(10))
ax2.set_ylabel('Adjusted', bbox=box)
ax2.set_ylim(0, 20)
Axis.set_label_coords(ax2.yaxis,1.1, 0.5)
  
fig.suptitle("Matplotlib.axis.Axis.set_label_coords()\
Function Example", fontsize = 12, fontweight ='bold'
  
plt.show()


Output:
