[Matplotlib-users] Problems y_label -> bar chart

[Florian K. <flo...@tu...>]

Hi Folks!

I want to create a bar chart having 85 different Objects, each Object  
owning a certain name of four letters -- I followed the examples on  
the matplotlib examples page - so far so good.

I have some problems with the y_labeling because every objects name is  
overlaid by it' s neighbour and so a proper assignment is not  
possible. I tried to change the bar size, but that did not have any  
effect on the y_label.

Is it possible to display the object names vertical 1
                                                     y
                                                     k
                                                     7

instead of horizontal (1yk7) to obtain a better readable figure?
or maybe some of you have a better idea?
