aligns the title on the right,horizontalalignment = 'right'
aligns a short title on the left,horizontalalignment = 'right'
displaces a longer title on the far left
Code for reproduction
# Left alignment test, short titlefig=plt.figure(figsize=(9,4))ax=fig.add_subplot(111)fig.suptitle('This figure suptitle should be on the left',horizontalalignment='left')ax.set_title('This axis title should be on the left',loc='left');fig.savefig('left_align.png')# Right alignment test, short titlefig=plt.figure(figsize=(9,4))ax=fig.add_subplot(111)fig.suptitle('This figure suptitle should be on the right',horizontalalignment='right')ax.set_title('This axis title should be on the right',loc='right');fig.savefig('right_align.png')# Right alignment test, longer titlefig=plt.figure(figsize=(9,4))ax=fig.add_subplot(111)fig.suptitle('This figure suptitle should be on the right but it is far left',horizontalalignment='right')ax.set_title('This axis title should be on the left',loc='left')fig.savefig('far_left.png');
Actual outcome
Expected outcome
The following code manually sets the figure title at the expected position:
fig=plt.figure(figsize=(9,4))ax=fig.add_subplot(111)fig.suptitle('This figure suptitle is long but it is manually positioned',x=0.38)ax.set_title('This axis title should be on the left',loc='left')fig.savefig('manual_pos.png');
