[Custom Python Visual] Maplotlib Bar Chart Is Showing Empty Space

Hello,

 

As the title says, Matplotlib Bar Chart is showing alot of empty spaces.

 

I want the bar chart to take up all the empty spaces shown below.

 

Any advice on how to get this done?

 

Thank you in advance!

Hi @Rayshin,

 

Thank you for your comment.

 

I think my post is a little vague. What I'm trying to do is fill up the allotted space for the Python visual.

 

Is this an aspect ratio issue? Do you have any other advice?

 

Thank you in advance!

To get rid of whitespace around the border,  set bbox_inches='tight' in the savefig() method.

I recommend using plotly js custom visual https://appsource.microsoft.com/en-us/product/power-bi-visuals/akvelon.plotlyjsvisualbyakvelon?tab=Overview

You can select bar graph and built on top of it - it has more functionality and is easier to configure stuff.

As a comparison, the table below is what I want the chart to look like.

 

The chart inside the square fills up all of its allotted space. No empty spaces.
