QPlot: textdist

textdist

Specify distance to text labels for xaxis and yaxis

Call signature:

textdist(lbl=None, ttl=None)

Help text:

textdist(lbldist, ttldist) specifies distance between ticks and tick labels and between tick labels and axis title, in points.

textdist(dist) uses dist for both distances.

Positive numbers are to the left and down; negative numbers are to the right and up. (lbl, ttl) = textdist() returns current settings.

Example:

import qplot as qp

import numpy as np

qp.figure('textdist', 3, 3)

qp.textdist(10)

qp.xaxis('Title', np.arange(6), y=0)

qp.textdist(3)

qp.xaxis('Title', np.arange(6), y=1)

qp.textdist(-3, 3)

qp.xaxis('Title', np.arange(6), y=2)

qp.textdist(3, -10)

qp.xaxis('Title', np.arange(6), y=3)
