Other Parameters

**kwargs : `~matplotlib.text.Text` properties

Other miscellaneous text parameters.

Parameters

x, y : float

The position to place the text. By default, this is in figure coordinates, floats in [0, 1]. The coordinate system can be changed using the transform keyword.

s : str

The text string.

fontdict : dict, optional

A dictionary to override the default text properties. If not given, the defaults are determined by font.* . Properties passed as kwargs override the corresponding ones given in fontdict.

Returns

`~.text.Text`

Add text to figure.

Examples

See :

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
