【问题描述】:
我目前遇到的问题是显示的 x 标签在 x 轴上重叠,导致标签难以辨认。
我已经尝试过的:
1) 坐标轴已将刻度旋转到 60 度,但有些图仍然重叠
2) Locator_params 已经尝试过了,但是它会抛出一个错误“AttributeError: 'List' object has no attribute 'locator_params'”
3) 使用 mdates 访问年月定位器也未成功。以下是我尝试过的示例代码;从源头; Matplotlib date manipulation so that the year tick show up every 12 months
years = mdates.YearLocator()
months = mdates.MonthLocator()
monthsFmt = mdates.DateFormatter('%b-%y')
yearsformat=mdates.DateFormatter('\n\n%Y')
###
ax.xaxis.set_minor_locator(months)
ax.xaxis.set_minor_formatter(monthsFmt)
####
plt.setp(ax.xaxis.get_minorticklabels(), rotation=90)
ax.xaxis.set_major_formatter(years)
ax.xaxis.set_major_formatter(yearsformat)
我相信我可能误解了如何使用 locator_params 和 mdates。
注意事项:
1) 我正在使用一个循环来制作约 200 个具有不同数量的 xticks 的图,有些有 400+,其他只有 15 个。因此,我想尝试将最大滴答数设置为 ~30 -40 如果可能的话。不过,我也愿意接受其他想法和建议。

for i in range(0,len(df.columns)):
#Scatter plot the active ingredient data.

看起来您正在绘制字符串而不是日期。您几乎不能在坐标轴上的
"Apple"和"Cherry"之间忽略"Banana"。可能看到this question。
