Setting xlabel doesn't work

[hsauro]

Setting the xlabel for a graph doesn't work because it doesn't override the current label.

Eg if time is the x axis, the label is 'time'. Typing

plt.xlabel ('Time')

is ignored. This used to work. ylabel works ok.

Update: I noticed that r.plot(xlabel='Time') does work, however I need plt.xlabel ('Time') to work for legacy code.

Cannot reproduce.

r.plot(s, xlabel='time')
plt.xlabel("Time")

works fine for me. Make sure to always execute the two lines together (first executing r.plot, than executing the plt.xlabel won't work because the plot is already rendered)

I think it is better to leave the default behavior of plot() function to NOT set xlabel automatically from the list of selection names. The proposed solution does not work because plt.xlabel("Time") will create a new empty plot but not replace the xlabel on the original plot.

Solve this problem by setting show=False:

import tellurium as te
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

r = te.loada ('''
$Xo -> S1; k1*Xo;
S1 -> $X1; k2*S1;
k1 = 0.5; k2 = 0.1; Xo = 1; S1 = 0.5;
''')

m = r.simulate (0, 50, 100, ["time", "S1"])
n = r.simulate(0, 10, 100)

r.plot(result=m, show=False)
plt.xlabel("x")
plt.show()

r.plot(result=n)

Be sure to put plt.show() after changing figure element if plotting multiple figures.

FWIW in recent (conda) versions of roadrunner you can use r.showPlot(). This obviates the pyplot import.

Be sure to put |plt.show()| after changing figure element if plotting multiple figures.
