Make part of a matplotlib title bold and a different color
Question:
I would like to change part of a title to be bold. For example:
plt.title("This is title number: " + str(number))
Given a title like the above, how would I bold the str(number)
part.
Answers:
This post should answer your question on manipulating the title. You can use latex text rendering and call textbf for that particular part of the string.
Styling part of label in legend in matplotlib
Here is the documentation:
http://matplotlib.org/users/usetex.html
http://matplotlib.org/api/axes_api.html#matplotlib.axes.Axes.set_title
activate latex text rendering
from matplotlib import rc
rc('text', usetex=True)
plt.title("This is title number: " + r"textbf{" + str(number) + "}")
From matplotlib version 2 on,
there is no need to use latex (which would require a working latex installation). One can use normal MathText to render part of the title in bold.
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
number = 2017
plt.title("This is title number: " + r"$bf{" + str(number) + "}$")
plt.show()
