[Matplotlib-users] legend with item listed horizontally

[Gerald J. M. M. <Ger...@jp...>]

Hello,

Is there a way to specify that a legend show its items
horizontally instead of vertically, i.e.:

x-x-x-x label1     y-y-y-y label2     z-z-z-z label3

vs.

x-x-x-x label1
y-y-y-y label2
z-z-z-z label3

?

Thanks,

Gerald
