I have a rather simple strip plot with vertical data.
planets = sns.load_dataset("planets")
sns.stripplot(x="method", y="distance", data=planets, size=4, color=".7")
plt.xticks(rotation=45, ha="right")
plt.show()
I want to plot the mean of each x-element (method
) as a small horizontal bar similar to what you get with:
sns.boxplot(
x="method",
y="distance",
data=planets,
whis=[50, 50],
showfliers=False,
showbox=False,
showcaps=False
)
But without the vertical lines (with whis=[50,50]
just spots) for the first / third quartile and showing mean instead of median. Maybe there is a more elegant solution not involving a Boxplot.
matplotlib.pyplot.boxplot
showmeans=True
meanline=True
makes a line instead of a markermeanprops={'color': 'k', 'ls': '-', 'lw': 2}
sets the color, style and width of the line.
matplotlib.lines.Line2D
for other line properties.medianprops={'visible': False}
makes the median line not visiblewhiskerprops={'visible': False}
makes the whisker line not visiblezorder=10
places the line on the top layermatplotlib v3.4.2
and seaborn v0.11.1
