plottify

The plottify package is makes matplotlib plots more legible. It's a thin wrapper around matplotlib that automatically adjusts font sizes, scatter point sizes, line widths, etc. according to the figure size.

Installation

pip install plottify

Usage

The plottify interface is extremely simple and relies on one central function, autosize(). After you've created a plot, simply call autosize() and the sizes will be adjusted:

from plottify import autosize
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

plt.scatter(x, y)
autosize()
plt.show()

If you have a matplotlib figure object, you can pass it as an argument to autosize:

autosize(fig)

Demonstration

By default, matplotlib sets the sizes of these objects to pre-specified values, regardless of the figure size. This can result in tiny fonts or sizes for larger figures.

Plottify's autosize function adjusts these sizes automatically to make them more legible. When we change the figure size, plottify automatically adjusts the objects' sizes.
