Python padding

Hi,

 

I used the Python visual to embed a scatter in my report.

I would like the scatter to fill the screen. I have 2 issues with that:

 

1. The python visual comes with a lot of padding. I have huge white space between the border of the visual and the axis of the scatter

2. The scatter comes out square. I don't know how to make its width larger than its height, even if the visual wrapping it is more wide than tall

 

Can this be solved in for Python visual or for R visual?

 

Thanks,

Barak

    OK,

     

    Solved it with the size and aspect parameters.

    barakb32 ,

     

    The padding size should be decided by the python code you are using. Could you share some part of the python code for further analysis?

      This is the code as it appears in Power BI:

       

       

      import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import pandas as pd 
import seaborn as sns
sns.set_palette("pastel")
#print (sns.get_dataset_names())
df = pd.DataFrame(dict(x=dataset['Probability01'], y=dataset['Impact110']))
#plt.scatter(x=dataset['Probability01'],y=dataset['Impact110'],s=dataset['Booking']/10000)
lm=sns.lmplot(x='Probability01',y='Impact110',data=dataset,hue='Proj_Type',scatter_kws={'s': dataset['Booking']/10000})
#axes=lm.axes
#axes[0,0].set_ylim(-1,)
#axes[0,1].set_xlim(0,)
plt.xlim(-0.1,1.1)
plt.ylim(-1,11)
for i, txt in enumerate(dataset["Project Name"]):
plt.annotate(txt, (df.x.iat[i],df.y.iat[i]),fontsize=15)
plt.show()

       

       

      and this is how it appears in spyder:

      BTW1: I don't think that's a Python padding, since I changed the visual background to transparent and put a rectangle behind it.

      While the plot area hides the rectangle, the padding/whitespace doesn't hide it.

       

      BTW2: There is not much padding when the visual is small. The padding comes intoplace when I enlarge the visual to fill the screen.
