matplotlib.figure.Figure.get_tightbbox

Figure.get_tightbbox(renderer=None, *, bbox_extra_artists=None)[source]

Return a (tight) bounding box of the figure in inches.

Note that FigureBase differs from all other artists, which return their Bbox in pixels.

Artists that have artist.set_in_layout(False) are not included in the bbox.

Parameters:

rendererRendererBase subclass

Renderer that will be used to draw the figures (i.e. fig.canvas.get_renderer())

bbox_extra_artistslist of Artist or None

List of artists to include in the tight bounding box. If None (default), then all artist children of each Axes are included in the tight bounding box.

Returns:

BboxBase

containing the bounding box (in figure inches).
