How do I fit long title?

Question

There\'s a similar question - but I can\'t make the solution proposed there work.

Here\'s an example plot with a long title:

#!/usr/bin/env python

i         


        

Answer 1

Here's what I've finally used:

#!/usr/bin/env python3

import matplotlib
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
from textwrap import wrap

data = range(5)

fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(111)

ax.plot(data, data)

title = ax.set_title("\n".join(wrap("Some really really long long long title I really really need - and just can't - just can't - make it any - simply any - shorter - at all.", 60)))

fig.tight_layout()
title.set_y(1.05)
fig.subplots_adjust(top=0.8)

fig.savefig("1.png")
