Matplotlibis a library in Python and it is numerical – mathematical extension for NumPy library. The
figure moduleprovides the top-level Artist, the Figure, which contains all the plot elements. This module is used to control the default spacing of the subplots and top level container for all plot elements.
matplotlib.figure.Figure.get_figwidth() method The get_figwidth() methodfigure module of matplotlib library is used to get the figure width as a float.
Syntax: get_figwidth(self) Parameters: This method does not accept any parameters. Returns: This method return the figure width as a float.
Below examples illustrate the matplotlib.figure.Figure.get_figwidth() function in matplotlib.figure:
Example 1: Python3
# Implementation of matplotlib function
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from matplotlib.figure import Figure
from mpl_toolkits.axisartist.axislines import Subplot
import numpy as np
fig = plt.figure()
ax = Subplot(fig, 111)
fig.add_subplot(ax)
w = fig.get_figwidth()
ax.text(0.2, 0.5,
"Value Return by get_figwidth() : "
+ str(w),
fontweight ="bold")
fig.canvas.draw()
fig.suptitle('matplotlib.figure.Figure.get_figwidth() \
function Example', fontweight ="bold")
plt.show()
Output: Example 2: Python3
# Implementation of matplotlib function
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from matplotlib.figure import Figure
import numpy as np
fig = plt.figure(edgecolor = "red", figsize =(7, 6))
ax = fig.add_axes([0.1, 0.1, 0.8, 0.8])
xx = np.arange(0, 2 * np.pi, 0.01)
ax.plot(xx, np.sin(xx))
w = fig.get_figwidth()
ax.text(1.5, 0,
"Value Return by get_figwidth() : "
+ str(w),
fontweight ="bold")
fig.canvas.draw()
fig.suptitle('matplotlib.figure.Figure.get_figwidth() \
function Example', fontweight ="bold")
plt.show()
