Legend on top of Multi line plots

Community Support

I am struggling hard to get legend on top of the multi line plot.

Here is my code and output. I tried many things however could not succeed. Please help me in resolving this issue.


import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
from bokeh.plotting import figure, show, output_file
from bokeh.models import FixedTicker
numlines=len(StateMktYear.columns)
p = figure(width=600, height=300) p.multi_line(xs=[StateMktYear.index.values]*numlines,
ys=[StateMktYear[name].values for name in StateMktYear],
color=['green','red','blue','magenta','black'],
line_width=2)
p.left[0].formatter.use_scientific = False
# p.legend='abc'
# p.legend.location='bottom_left'
p.axis.axis_label_text_font_size='14pt'
p.axis.axis_label_text_font='Times'
p.axis.major_label_text_font='Times'
p.xaxis.ticker=FixedTicker(ticks=[2012,2013,2014])
p.title='Demand Across Years'
p.axis.major_label_text_color='Black'
p.xaxis.axis_label='Year'
p.yaxis.axis_label='Demand'
show(p)

Failing an “official” way of providing a collection of legend-labels (which I don’t see from a quick scan of the docs), you could just plot the lines individually. In what follows, I’m assuming that iterating over StateMktYear produces the (string) names, since that’s how you’re using it. If not, you may want to zip over the column-names or whatever else is appropriate depending on the type of StateMktYear.

Code is untested, but should be in the ballpark.


p = figure(width=600, height=300)

# This replaces the call to p.multi_line()...

colors = ['green','red','blue','magenta','black']

for color, name in zip(colors, StateMktYear):

p.line(x=StateMktYear.index.values,

y=StateMktYear[name].values,

legend=name, color=color, line_width=2)

p.left[0].formatter.use_scientific = False

# p.legend='abc'

# p.legend.location='bottom_left'

p.axis.axis_label_text_font_size='14pt'

p.axis.axis_label_text_font='Times'

p.axis.major_label_text_font='Times'

p.xaxis.ticker=FixedTicker(ticks=[2012,2013,2014])

p.title='Demand Across Years'

p.axis.major_label_text_color='Black'

p.xaxis.axis_label='Year'

p.yaxis.axis_label='Demand'

show(p)

There is a way to do this in new releases. See the plotting/file/multi_line.py example. We are in the middle of a troublesome release, I apologizeI cannot elaborate futher at the moment.

Thanks,

Bryan

Glancing at this example (https://github.com/bokeh/bokeh/blob/master/examples/plotting/file/multi_line.py), it looks like it boils down to:

Put your data in a ColumnDataSource with at least columns for xs, ys, and labels, and then specify the source and appropriate columns in the call to p.multi_line. For example:


data = {'xs': [np.arange(5) * 1, np.arange(5) * 2],

'ys': [np.ones(5) * 3, np.ones(5) * 4],

'labels': ['one', 'two']}

source = ColumnDataSource(data)

p = figure(width=600, height=300)

p.multi_line(xs='xs', ys='ys', legend='labels', source=source)

This certainly lines up with my other experiences creating glyphs from a ColumnDataSource. So, that might be a cleaner way to solve your problem that plotting each line separately within a loop.
