| + | * Other attributes: ''markersize'', ''markerfacecolor'' (and ''markerfacecoloralt'' for dual color markers), ''markeredgecolor'', ''markeredgewidth'' | ||
| + | * [[https://matplotlib.org/api/colors_api.html|colors]] | ||
| + | * [[https://matplotlib.org/gallery/color/color_demo.html|color demo]] | ||

| + | * [[https://matplotlib.org/api/pyplot_api.html#matplotlib.pyplot.legend|legend(...)]] ([[https://matplotlib.org/examples/pylab_examples/legend_demo3.html|legend demo]]) | ||
| + | * The legend will //show// the lines (or other objects) that were associated with a //label// with the ''label='' keyword when creating/updating a plot | ||
| + | * If there are some elements of a plot that you do not want to associate with a legend (e.g. there are several lines with the same color and markers, but you want to plot the legend only once), do not specify a ''label='' keyword for these elements, or add a ''_'' at the front of the label strings | ||
| + | * The legend is positioned somewhere (that can be specified) **inside** the plot. In order to place a legend **outside** the plot, use the ''bbox_to_anchor'' parameter | ||
| + | * the parameters of ''bbox_to_anchor'' are in normalized coordinates of the current (sub)plot: | ||
| + | * ''(0, 0)'' is the lower left corner of the plot, and ''(1, 1)'' the upper right corner | ||
| + | * ''legend(... bbox_to_anchor=(1.05, 1.), loc='upper left', ...)'' will put the upper left corner of the legend slightly right (''(1.05, 1.)'') of the upper right corner (''(1, 1)'') of the plot | ||
| + | * if the legend is outside of the plot, you have to **explicitly provide enough space for the legend on the page** | ||
| + | * e.g. with [[https://matplotlib.org/api/_as_gen/matplotlib.pyplot.subplots_adjust.html|subplots_adjust]], ''plt.subplots_adjust(right=0.75)'' will make all the plots use 75% on the left of the page, and leave 25% on the right for the legend | ||
