Last Updated : 15 Jul, 2025

Matplotlib is a library in Python and it is numerical – mathematical extension for NumPy library. It is an amazing visualization library in Python for 2D plots of arrays and used for working with the broader SciPy stack.

matplotlib.axis.Axis.get_minpos() Function

The Axis.get_minpos() function in axis module of matplotlib library is used to get the minpos.

Syntax: Axis.get_minpos(self)

Parameters: This method does not accepts any parameters.

Return value: This method return the minpos.

Below examples illustrate the matplotlib.axis.Axis.get_minpos() function in matplotlib.axis:

Example 1:

Python3

# Implementation of matplotlib function
from matplotlib.axis import Axis
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt 
import numpy as np 
    
X = np.arange(-5, 5, 1) 
Y = np.arange(-5, 5, 1) 
U, V = np.meshgrid(X, Y) 
      
fig, ax = plt.subplots() 
ax.quiver(X, Y, U, V)

w = ax.xaxis.get_minpos() 
    
print("Value Return :\n"+str(w)) 
   
fig.suptitle("""matplotlib.axis.Axis.get_minpos()
function Example\n""", fontweight ="bold")  
       
plt.show()

Output:

Value Return :
4.0

Example 2:

Python3

# Implementation of matplotlib function 
from matplotlib.axis import Axis
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
 
fig, ax2 = plt.subplots(sharex = True)
fig.subplots_adjust(left=0.2, wspace=0.6)
box = dict(facecolor='green', pad=5, alpha=0.2)
 
ax2.plot(20*np.random.rand(10))
ax2.set_xlabel('X - Label', bbox=box)
ax2.set_xlim(0, 10)
Axis.set_label_coords(ax2.xaxis, 0.5, 0.95)

w = ax2.xaxis.get_minpos() 
    
print("Value Return :\n"+str(w)) 
   
fig.suptitle("""matplotlib.axis.Axis.get_minpos()
function Example\n""", fontweight ="bold")  
       
plt.show()
