set_constrained_layout_pads(self, *, w_pad=None, h_pad=None, wspace=None, hspace=None)

Tip: The parameters can be passed from a dictionary by using fig.set_constrained_layout(**pad_dict) .

See /tutorials/intermediate/constrainedlayout_guide .

Parameters

w_pad : float, default: :rc:`figure.constrained_layout.w_pad`

Width padding in inches. This is the pad around Axes and is meant to make sure there is enough room for fonts to look good. Defaults to 3 pts = 0.04167 inches

h_pad : float, default: :rc:`figure.constrained_layout.h_pad`

Height padding in inches. Defaults to 3 pts.

wspace : float, default: :rc:`figure.constrained_layout.wspace`

Width padding between subplots, expressed as a fraction of the subplot width. The total padding ends up being w_pad + wspace.

hspace : float, default: :rc:`figure.constrained_layout.hspace`

Height padding between subplots, expressed as a fraction of the subplot width. The total padding ends up being h_pad + hspace.

Set padding for constrained_layout .

Local connectivity graph

Hover to see nodes names; edges to Self not shown, Caped at 50 nodes.

Using a canvas is more power efficient and can get hundred of nodes ; but does not allow hyperlinks; , arrows or text (beyond on hover)

SVG is more flexible but power hungry; and does not scale well to 50 + nodes.

All aboves nodes referred to, (or are referred from) current nodes; Edges from Self to other have been omitted (or all nodes would be connected to the central node "self" which is not useful). Nodes are colored by the library they belong to, and scaled with the number of references pointing them
