[Matplotlib-users] figure legend overlapping with the axes title

[Nitin B. <nit...@ya...>]

I am using figure.legend function to create a legend. See the code line below.

legend = fig.legend(ax.get_lines(), labellist, ncol=4, loc='upper center', prop=fontprop)

However, using the loc='upper center' where legend overlapps the axes title. I also tried the setting loc='lower center'. In this case, figure legend overlapps the x-axis label. 

Am I missing some parameter ? How I can place the figure legend below the x-axis label ? Is there a way to place the figure legend below the axes title ?

regards,
Nitin
