There is currently no "move to" location, but there is an offset
method where you can supply a deltxa, deltay in relative sizes, in
your case fractions of the figure width and height. So if you wanted
to move the legend 5% of the figure width to the right and 10% of the
figure height up, you can call
leg._offset(0.05, 0.10)
The leading underscore means that this method was intended for
internal use, and may change in future releases, but you can try it
and see if it works for you. If it does, I can probably make it
a public method for the next release.
As always you'll need to call canvas.draw after setting the new legend
location.

Sæll !
I was simply planning to be able to move between the default positions 'upper right', 'upper left', etc
But I believe I can use _offset.
However it did not produce much effect
I have defined the legend the following way:
canvas.leg=Figure.legend(canvas.figure,tuple([i[1] for i in d]),tuple([i[0] for i in d]),'best')
And then when I toggle a button I apply the following move with the canvas object, which is just a test offset
def toggle_legend(self, event):
""" Toggle the label in the legend button
between Upper Right and Upper Left """
if self.Legend_button.get_active()==1:
self.Legend_button.set_label("Upper Right")
else:
self.Legend_button.set_label("Upper Left")
self.leg._offset(0.1,0.56)
self.draw()
return
When I toggle the button, the label changes, but the legend is unmoved.
Am I missing something ?
