Tick fontsize control

[cgcg10086]

Hello, On a corner plot with many variables, the axis tick labels overlap with the axis labels. I was wondering how to control the tick label's font size, or chose not to display them. Thank you!

This isn't really built into corner. Your best bet is probably to use matplotlib's rcParams.

Hello,

Thank you for bringing emcee and corner to the world!

I want to submit a corner plot with a publication I'm drafting, and am troubled by the same problem. I need a column-width figure to have >2 mm font size when typeset.

I can control axis label size using the label_kwargs keyword discussed in another ticket, but corner seems to be ignoring matplotlib's rcParams when setting the tick label size.

Has there been any more thought on this issue?

This code doesn't set the tick font size anywhere. Make sure that you're using the correct rc params and this will work. If it doesn't, then it's probably a bug with matplotlib :-)

Hello,

I had the same problem with tick labels overlapping axis labels when I made the labels a larger size for a publication. matplolib's subplots_adjust worked for me:

figure = corner.corner(...)
figure.subplots_adjust(right=1.5,top=1.5)

with

for ax in figure.get_axes():
    ax.tick_params(axis='both', labelsize=16)

I'm sure the rcParams figure.subplot.right and figure.subplot.top would also do the trick.

To save the figure without cutting things off I did:

figure.savefig(filepath,dpi=300,pad_inches=0.3,bbox_inches='tight')
