Re: [Matplotlib-users] Re moving white space surrounding plots

[mdekauwe <mde...@gm...>]

Hmm OK thanks. It seems I am using 

In [3]: matplotlib.__version__                                                                                 
Out[3]: '0.98.5.3'

so by the sounds of it an outdated version? But your example will work on a
newer version?

 

What version of matplotlib are you using?
With 0.99.1.1 (and likely later) and also with the svn version, using
the bbox_inches="tight" actually produces an output with too small
margin.
With the svn version, following code should generate an output with an
adequate margin.

Otherwise, you cannot rely on bbox_inches features. Instead, you have
to manually adjust the size of the figure (and subplots_adjust).

   t1=ax.text(0.5, -0.15, 'Longitude', transform=ax.transAxes,
ha='center', va='center')
   t2=ax.text(-0.1, 0.5, 'Latitude', transform=ax.transAxes, ha=
'center', va='center', rotation='vertical')
   #ax.set_title("Sign.Different: GSPW2 - Princeton")
   fig.savefig('test.png', dpi=300, bbox_inches='tight',
bbox_extra_artists=[t1, t2])
