Matplotlib: 更改轴的颜色

在 matplotlib 中有没有一种方法可以改变轴(而不是刻度)的颜色?我一直在查看 Axes、 Axis 和 Artist 的文档,但是没有找到; matplotlib 库也没有提示。 知道吗?

For the record, this is how I managed to make it work:

fig = pylab.figure()
ax  = fig.add_subplot(1, 1, 1)
for child in ax.get_children():
if isinstance(child, matplotlib.spines.Spine):
child.set_color('#dddddd')

You can do it by adjusting the default rc settings.

import matplotlib
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt


matplotlib.rc('axes',edgecolor='r')
plt.plot([0, 1], [0, 1])
plt.savefig('test.png')

When using figures, you can easily change the spine color with:

ax.spines['bottom'].set_color('#dddddd')
ax.spines['top'].set_color('#dddddd')
ax.spines['right'].set_color('red')
ax.spines['left'].set_color('red')

Use the following to change only the ticks:

  • which="both" changes both the major and minor tick colors
ax.tick_params(axis='x', colors='red')
ax.tick_params(axis='y', colors='red')

And the following to change only the label:

ax.yaxis.label.set_color('red')
ax.xaxis.label.set_color('red')

And finally the title:

ax.title.set_color('red')

Setting edge color for all axes globally:

matplotlib.rcParams['axes.edgecolor'] = '#ff0000'
