Question

我正在绘制多个热图，并且不希望他们用他们的轴瞄准空间＃39;标签。我试着使用plt.tight_layout（），这给我带来了一些错误。

这是我没有plt.tight_layout（）的结果： heatmaps without plt.tight_layout()

如何在没有重叠/过度拥挤的情况下将这些热图聚集在一起？这些plt.tight_layout（）错误意味着什么？

这是我得到的错误：

当然，在这种情况下，Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable example是不可或缺的。

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np

fig = plt.figure(figsize=(4.8,4.8))
for i in range(5):
    ax = fig.add_subplot(1, 5, i+1)
    ax.set_title("Title {}".format(i))
    ax.set_xlabel('Temperature')
    ax.set_ylabel('pH')
    x, y = np.meshgrid(np.arange(6),np.arange(11))
    intensity = np.random.rand(10,5)
    pc = ax.pcolormesh(x, y, intensity)
    fig.colorbar(pc, ax=ax)

plt.tight_layout()
plt.show()

以上产生了问题的错误原因很简单，图中的元素不适合图中。选择稍大的图形大小会使这一点变得明显，将图形宽度从4.8（plt.figaspect(1)的默认值）更改为4.9

fig = plt.figure(figsize=(4.9,4.8))

产生

轴范围基本上为0;但不完全是因为这会导致上述错误。但是，输出还是没用的。因此需要更大的图形尺寸。例如。将图形宽度更改为10英寸，

 fig = plt.figure(figsize=(10,4.8))

产生合理的结果。
