Hi, I would like to add some text relative to the legend, let's say below it, and I don't know how to get the legend coordinates so I can pass them to the text() method. Does anyone know how to do it? Alternatively, if there was a way to add text inside the legend itself, it would also do the trick. Thank you in advance. Ernest
See if the example below works. plot([1,2,3], label="test") a=legend() import matplotlib.offsetbox as offsetbox txt=offsetbox.TextArea("Test 2") box = a._legend_box box.get_children().append(txt) box.set_figure(box.figure) For more control of legend, see the link below. http://abitofpythonabitofastronomy.blogspot.com/2010/01/customized-legend.html Regards, -JJ On Sun, Jan 31, 2010 at 11:59 AM, Ernest Adrogué <ead...@gm...> wrote: > Hi, > > I would like to add some text relative to the legend, > let's say below it, and I don't know how to get the legend > coordinates so I can pass them to the text() method. > > Does anyone know how to do it? > > Alternatively, if there was a way to add text inside the > legend itself, it would also do the trick. > > Thank you in advance. > > Ernest > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > The Planet: dedicated and managed hosting, cloud storage, colocation > Stay online with enterprise data centers and the best network in the business > Choose flexible plans and management services without long-term contracts > Personal 24x7 support from experience hosting pros just a phone call away. > http://p.sf.net/sfu/theplanet-com > _______________________________________________ > Matplotlib-users mailing list > Mat...@li... > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/matplotlib-users >
