Contour label position

Community matplotlib-users

Hello,

Is there a way to change the location of a contour label for plots made
with contour() and contourf()? At the moment I’m making a plot of a
data range, then changing the axes for the region I’m interested in,
and this has the effect that matplotlib puts in the labels, but they
disappear as I remove parts of the plot.

The code I’m using looks like this:

figure(23)

levels,colls=contour(skQuantComp,[0.5,0.6,0.7,0.8,.9,1.0,1.1,1.2,1.3,1.4,1.5],alpha=0.5)

clabel(colls, inline=0, fontsize=18)

xlabel(‘Sand-sand cost ratio for Sand K/Sand M’)

ylabel(‘Cement-sand cost ratio for Sand K’)

xticks(indRange/scInc,xtickPts)

yticks(indRange/scInc,tickPts)

axis([0,len(skQuantComp[0]),int(0.2len(skQuantComp[0])),int(0.7len(skQuantComp))])

show()

Thanks,

Gwilym

Gwilym,

I don't think there is an easy way to do that, so you may have to simply plot the region of interest from the start instead of changing the axes after plotting.
