matplotlib.axes.Axes.twinx

Axes.twinx()[source]

Create a twin Axes sharing the xaxis.

Create a new Axes with an invisible x-axis and an independent y-axis positioned opposite to the original one (i.e. at right). The x-axis autoscale setting will be inherited from the original Axes. To ensure that the tick marks of both y-axes align, see LinearLocator.

Returns

Axes

The newly created Axes instance

Notes

For those who are 'picking' artists while using twinx, pick events are only called for the artists in the top-most Axes.
