I'd like to rotate text / labels for each (x,y) scatterplot points.

Here's my dataframe:

import pandas as pd import seaborn sns df1 = pd.DataFrame({"one": [1,2,3,5,6,7,8], "two": [3,6,4,3,8,2,5], "label":['a','b','c','d','e','f','g']}) ax = sns.scatterplot(x='one', y='two', data = df1) for line in range(0,df1.shape[0]): ax.text(df1.one[line]+0.04, df1.two[line], df1.label[line], horizontalalignment='left', size='medium', color='black', weight='semibold')

enter image description here

I'd like to rotate labels to 45, so that they're visible / clear.

    pass rotation='45' in ax.text() method inside your for loop Commented Jul 31, 2021 at 5:12

    rotation=45 (no quotes) Commented Jul 31, 2021 at 5:15
  • Have you tried it by passing rotation parameter in ax.text()?.....yes it is accepted either you pass value as an integer or as a string it won't affect the result Commented Jul 31, 2021 at 5:16

use this code for rotate the label on graph

df1 = pd.DataFrame({"one": [1,2,3,5,6,7,8], "two": [3,6,4,3,8,2,5], "label":['a','b','c','d','e','f','g']}) ax=sns.scatterplot(x='one', y='two', data = df1) a=pd.concat({"x":df1["one"],"y":df1["two"],"lab":df1["label"]},axis=1) for i ,point in a.iterrows(): ax.text(point['x'],point['y'],str(point['lab'])).set_rotation(45)

to rotate the label in graph

ax.text(point['x'],point['y'], str(point['lab']), rotation=45)

The following would do it:

plt.figure(figsize=(10,10)) p1 = sns.scatterplot(x='one', y='two', data=df1, legend=False) for i in range(0,df1.shape[0]): p1.text(df1.one[i]+0.04, df1.two[i], df1.label[i], horizontalalignment='left', size='medium', color='black', weight='semibold') plt.title('Example Plot') plt.xlabel('One') plt.ylabel('Two')
