这是我尝试将条形图的图例从矩形更改为方形:
import matplotlib.patches as patches
rect1 = patches.Rectangle((0,0),1,1,facecolor='#FF605E')
rect2 = patches.Rectangle((0,0),1,1,facecolor='#64B2DF')
plt.legend((rect1, rect2), ('2016', '2015'))
但是当我绘制这个时,我仍然会看到矩形而不是正方形:
有关如何执行此操作的任何建议?
我尝试了@ImportanceOfBeingErnest和@furas提供的两种解决方案,结果如下:
@ ImportanceOfBeingErnest的解决方案是最容易做到的:
plt.rcParams['legend.handlelength'] = 1
plt.rcParams['legend.handleheight'] = 1.125
结果如下:
我的最终代码如下:
plt.legend((df.columns[1], df.columns[0]), handlelength=1, handleheight=1) # the df.columns = the legend text
@ furas的解决方案产生了这个,我不知道为什么文本远离矩形,但我确信差距可以以某种方式改变:

Matplotlib提供rcParams
legend.handlelength : 2. # the length of the legend lines in fraction of fontsize
legend.handleheight : 0.7 # the height of the legend handle in fraction of fontsize
您可以在通话中设置plt.legend()
plt.legend(handlelength=1, handleheight=1)
或在脚本开头使用rcParams
import matplotlib
matplotlib.rcParams['legend.handlelength'] = 1
matplotlib.rcParams['legend.handleheight'] = 1
不幸的是,提供相等的handlelength=1, handleheight=1
将无法提供完美的矩形。似乎handlelength=1, handleheight=1.125
将完成这项工作,但这可能取决于所使用的字体。
另一种方法是,如果你想使用代理艺术家,可以使用plot / scatter方法中的方形标记。
bar1 = plt.plot([], marker="s", markersize=15, linestyle="", label="2015")
并将其提供给图例legend(handles=[bar1])
。使用此方法需要设置matplotlib.rcParams['legend.numpoints'] = 1
,否则图例中将出现两个标记。
<小时/> 以下是两种方法
的完整示例
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.rcParams['legend.handlelength'] = 1
plt.rcParams['legend.handleheight'] = 1.125
plt.rcParams['legend.numpoints'] = 1
fig, ax = plt.subplots(ncols=2, figsize=(5,2.5))
# Method 1: Set the handlesizes already in the rcParams
ax[0].set_title("Setting handlesize")
ax[0].bar([0,2], [6,3], width=0.7, color="#a30e73", label="2015", align="center")
ax[0].bar([1,3], [3,2], width=0.7, color="#0943a8", label="2016", align="center" )
ax[0].legend()
# Method 2: use proxy markers. (Needs legend.numpoints to be 1)
ax[1].set_title("Proxy markers")
ax[1].bar([0,2], [6,3], width=0.7, color="#a30e73", align="center" )
ax[1].bar([1,3], [3,2], width=0.7, color="#0943a8", align="center" )
b1, =ax[1].plot([], marker="s", markersize=15, linestyle="", color="#a30e73", label="2015")
b2, =ax[1].plot([], marker="s", markersize=15, linestyle="", color="#0943a8", label="2016")
ax[1].legend(handles=[b1, b2])
[a.set_xticks([0,1,2,3]) for a in ax]
plt.show()

似乎他们很久以前就改变了 - 现在有些元素不能直接用在图例中。
现在需要handler
:
Implementing a custom legend handler
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import matplotlib.patches as patches
from matplotlib.legend_handler import HandlerPatch
# --- handlers ---
class HandlerRect(HandlerPatch):
def create_artists(self, legend, orig_handle,
xdescent, ydescent, width, height,
fontsize, trans):
x = width//2
y = 0
w = h = 10
# create
p = patches.Rectangle(xy=(x, y), width=w, height=h)
# update with data from oryginal object
self.update_prop(p, orig_handle, legend)
# move xy to legend
p.set_transform(trans)
return [p]
class HandlerCircle(HandlerPatch):
def create_artists(self, legend, orig_handle,
xdescent, ydescent, width, height,
fontsize, trans):
r = 5
x = r + width//2
y = height//2
# create
p = patches.Circle(xy=(x, y), radius=r)
# update with data from oryginal object
self.update_prop(p, orig_handle, legend)
# move xy to legend
p.set_transform(trans)
return [p]
# --- main ---
rect = patches.Rectangle((0,0), 1, 1, facecolor='#FF605E')
circ = patches.Circle((0,0), 1, facecolor='#64B2DF')
plt.legend((rect, circ), ('2016', '2015'),
handler_map={
patches.Rectangle: HandlerRect(),
patches.Circle: HandlerCircle(),
})
plt.show()
图例保留了矩形的位置,此方法无法更改,因此空间太多。
