text2D(x, y, s, fontdict=None, **kwargs)[source]
 
Add text to the Axes. Add the text s to the Axes at location x, y in data coordinates.  Parameters 
 
x, yfloat


The position to place the text. By default, this is in data coordinates. The coordinate system can be changed using the transform parameter.  
sstr


The text.  
fontdictdict, default: None


A dictionary to override the default text properties. If fontdict is None, the defaults are determined by rcParams.    Returns 
 Text

The created Text instance.    Other Parameters 
 
**kwargsText properties.


Other miscellaneous text parameters.

x float  
y float  
zorder float       Examples Individual keyword arguments can be used to override any given parameter: >>> text(x, y, s, fontsize=12)
 The default transform specifies that text is in data coords, alternatively, you can specify text in axis coords ((0, 0) is lower-left and (1, 1) is upper-right). The example below places text in the center of the Axes: >>> text(0.5, 0.5, 'matplotlib', horizontalalignment='center',
...      verticalalignment='center', transform=ax.transAxes)
 You can put a rectangular box around the text instance (e.g., to set a background color) by using the keyword bbox. bbox is a dictionary of Rectangle properties. For example: >>> text(x, y, s, bbox=dict(facecolor='red', alpha=0.5))
