Problem:
You want to set the xlabel of a matplotlib plot using .xlabel("My xlabel")
but you see an error messsage like
--------------------------------------------------------------------------- AttributeError Traceback (most recent call last) <ipython-input-12-28a87d95bccc> in <module> ---> 11 axs[0].xlabel("My xlabel") AttributeError: 'AxesSubplot' object has no attribute 'xlabel'
Solution:
Use .set_xlabel("My xlabel")
instead of .xlabel("My xlabel")
!
While
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt plt.xlabel("My xlabel")
works fine, if you have an axes object like the one you get from plt.subplots()
, you’ll have to use set_xlabel()
!
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt fig, axs = plt.subplots(2, 1) # ... axs[0].set_xlabel("My xlabel")
