在matplotlib中换行的文本框?

此答案的内容已合并到 https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/pull/4342 并将在下一个功能版本中发布。

这应该是matplotlib内置的东西,但事实并非如此 threads about it 在邮件列表中,但我找不到自动文本包装的解决方案。

下一个问题是字符没有固定的像素宽度,因此在呈现时,将文本字符串包装为给定数量的字符不一定反映给定的宽度。不过,这不是什么大问题。

除此之外,我们不能只做一次。。。否则,在第一次绘制时(例如,在屏幕上),它将被正确地包装,但在再次绘制时(当图形被调整大小或保存为具有与屏幕不同的DPI的图像时)则不会。这不是个大问题,因为我们可以将回调函数连接到matplotlib draw事件。

但是,它应该尝试自动将任何文本对象包装在多个子块中,无论您将 on_draw 回拨到。。。它在很多情况下都是不完美的,但它做得很好。

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

def main():
    fig = plt.figure()
    plt.axis([0, 10, 0, 10])

    t = "This is a really long string that I'd rather have wrapped so that it"\
    " doesn't go outside of the figure, but if it's long enough it will go"\
    " off the top or bottom!"
    plt.text(4, 1, t, ha='left', rotation=15)
    plt.text(5, 3.5, t, ha='right', rotation=-15)
    plt.text(5, 10, t, fontsize=18, ha='center', va='top')

             " does not go outside the figure boundaries", ha='center')

wrap = True 创建文本框时,如下例所示。这可能会产生预期的效果。

plt.text(5, 5, t, ha='right', rotation=-15, wrap=True)

大约已经五年了,但似乎仍然没有一个好的方法来做到这一点。这是我接受的解决方案的版本。我的目标是允许像素完美包装被有选择地应用于单个文本实例。我还创建了一个简单的text box()函数,它可以将任何轴转换为具有自定义边距和对齐方式的文本框。

我并没有假设一个特定的字体宽高比或平均宽度,而是一次画一个单词,并在达到阈值后插入换行符。与近似值相比,这个速度慢得惊人,但对于200个单词的字符串来说,仍然感觉很快。

我删除了一些对我来说不重要的功能。调整大小将失败,因为对_wrap()的每次调用都会在字符串中插入其他换行符,但无法删除这些换行符。这可以通过剥离wrap函数中的所有字符来解决,也可以将原始字符串存储在某个位置并在两次换行之间“重置”文本实例来解决。
