How to rotate Matplotlib annotation to match a line?
To rotate matplotlib annotation to match a line, we can take the following steps−
- Create a new figure or activate an existing figure using figure() method.
- Add an '~.axes.Axes' to the figure as part of a subplot arrangement using add_subplot() method.
- Initialize the variables, m (slope) and c (intercept).
- Create x and y data points using numpy.
- Calculate theta to make text rotation.
- Plot the line using plot() method with x and y.
- Place text on the line using text() method.
- To display the figure, use show() method.
Example
import numpy as np from matplotlib import pyplot as plt plt.rcParams["figure.figsize"] = [7.00, 3.50] plt.rcParams["figure.autolayout"] = True fig = plt.figure() ax = fig.add_subplot() m = 1 c = 1 x = np.linspace(-2, 2, 10) y = m*x + c theta = np.arctan(m) line, = ax.plot(x, y) ax.text(x=x[2], y=y[2]+.25, s="y=mx+c", rotation=180.0*(1-theta), fontsize=15, color='green') plt.show()
