plot_text horizontal and vertical alignment equivalent in bokeh
Question:
Is there an equivalent of matplotlib’s ha and va (horizontal and vertical alignment) when plotting text in bokeh?
In matplotlib I would write something like the following:
plt.text(x, y, 'text', ha='center', va='bottom')
In bokeh I am plotting text using the following method:
glyph = Text(x="x", y="y", text="text")
stagger_data.add_glyph(source, glyph)
Where source is a ColumnDataSource object.
Many thanks.
Answers:
I think you can use the text_align and the text_baseline attributes of the Text glyph.
glyph = Text(x="x", y="y", text="text", text_align="center",text_baseline="bottom")
You can have a look here in the documentation to see all the available fields in the creation of a Text glyph.
