To just show the text label in plot legend we can use legend method with handlelength=0, handletextpad=0 and fancybox=0 in the arguments.
Steps
Set the figure size and adjust the padding between and around the subplots.
Create random x and y data points using numpy.
Create a figure and a set of subplots using subplots() method.
Plot x and y data points using plot() method with label "Zig-Zag" for the legend.
Use legend() method to place the label for the plot with handlelength=0, handletextpad=0 and fancybox=0 in the arguments.
To display the figure, use show() method.
Example
import numpy as np from matplotlib import pyplot as plt plt.rcParams["figure.figsize"] = [7.50, 3.50] plt.rcParams["figure.autolayout"] = True x = np.random.rand(100) y = np.random.rand(100) fig, ax = plt.subplots() ax.plot(x, y, label='Zig-Zag', c="red") ax.legend(loc="upper right", handlelength=0, handletextpad=0, fancybox=True) plt.show()
