<html><head></head><body><div style="font-family: Verdana;font-size: 12.0px;"><div>Hi all,</div> <div> </div> <div>this is my first eMail to a mailing list, I hope I'm not messing it up. I posted my question already on stackoverflow, but apparently there's no simple solution to it:</div> <div><a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17909251/pyplot-change-ncols-within-a-legend" target="_blank">http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17909251/pyplot-change-ncols-within-a-legend</a></div> <div> </div> <div>In other words, I have a Figure with a many-entries-legend, but the legend text for most but not all of the object is very short. I'd like to use two or more columns for those short entries and switch back to single column mode when dealing with the longer legend entries.</div> <div> </div> <div>Two options came to my mind. One, make the legend work like a multicolumn-table in LaTeX or, two, having a container with multiple, well-aligned legends with individual properties for each one.</div> <div> </div> <div>I tried to solve my problem by setting up two legends. The downside is the need for additional aligning of the two legends. Even this is still beyond my skills.</div> <div> </div> <div>Thanks, Tyrax</div></div></body></html> |
