也许这对任何人都有帮助，但我已经改编了@ImportanceOfBeingErnest的答案，以与补丁和类一起工作。特点:

整个框架包含在单个类中，因此所有使用的变量仅在其相关范围内可用。 可以创建多个不同的补丁集吗 将鼠标悬停在补丁上将打印补丁集合名称和补丁子名称 将鼠标悬停在一个补丁上，通过将其边缘颜色更改为黑色来高亮该集合的所有补丁

注意:对于我的应用程序，重叠是不相关的，因此一次只显示一个对象的名称。如果你愿意，可以随意扩展到多个对象，这并不太难。

使用

fig, ax = plt.subplots(tight_layout=True)

ap = annotated_patches(fig, ax)
ap.add_patches('Azure', 'circle', 'blue', np.random.uniform(0, 1, (4,2)), 'ABCD', 0.1)
ap.add_patches('Lava', 'rect', 'red', np.random.uniform(0, 1, (3,2)), 'EFG', 0.1, 0.05)
ap.add_patches('Emerald', 'rect', 'green', np.random.uniform(0, 1, (3,2)), 'HIJ', 0.05, 0.1)

plt.axis('equal')
plt.axis('off')

plt.show()

实现

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import matplotlib.patches as mpatches
from matplotlib.collections import PatchCollection

np.random.seed(1)


class annotated_patches:
    def __init__(self, fig, ax):
        self.fig = fig
        self.ax = ax

        self.annot = self.ax.annotate("", xy=(0,0),
                            xytext=(20,20),
                            textcoords="offset points",
                            bbox=dict(boxstyle="round", fc="w"),
                            arrowprops=dict(arrowstyle="->"))
        
        self.annot.set_visible(False)
        
        self.collectionsDict = {}
        self.coordsDict = {}
        self.namesDict = {}
        self.isActiveDict = {}

        self.motionCallbackID = self.fig.canvas.mpl_connect("motion_notify_event", self.hover)

    def add_patches(self, groupName, kind, color, xyCoords, names, *params):
        if kind=='circle':
            circles = [mpatches.Circle(xy, *params, ec="none") for xy in xyCoords]
            thisCollection = PatchCollection(circles, facecolor=color, alpha=0.5, edgecolor=None)
            ax.add_collection(thisCollection)
        elif kind == 'rect':
            rectangles = [mpatches.Rectangle(xy, *params, ec="none") for xy in xyCoords] 
            thisCollection = PatchCollection(rectangles, facecolor=color, alpha=0.5, edgecolor=None)
            ax.add_collection(thisCollection)
        else:
            raise ValueError('Unexpected kind', kind)
            
        self.collectionsDict[groupName] = thisCollection
        self.coordsDict[groupName] = xyCoords
        self.namesDict[groupName] = names
        self.isActiveDict[groupName] = False
        
    def update_annot(self, groupName, patchIdxs):
        self.annot.xy = self.coordsDict[groupName][patchIdxs[0]]
        self.annot.set_text(groupName + ': ' + self.namesDict[groupName][patchIdxs[0]])
        
        # Set edge color
        self.collectionsDict[groupName].set_edgecolor('black')
        self.isActiveDict[groupName] = True

    def hover(self, event):
        vis = self.annot.get_visible()
        updatedAny = False
        if event.inaxes == self.ax:            
            for groupName, collection in self.collectionsDict.items():
                cont, ind = collection.contains(event)
                if cont:
                    self.update_annot(groupName, ind["ind"])
                    self.annot.set_visible(True)
                    self.fig.canvas.draw_idle()
                    updatedAny = True
                else:
                    if self.isActiveDict[groupName]:
                        collection.set_edgecolor(None)
                        self.isActiveDict[groupName] = True
                    
            if (not updatedAny) and vis:
                self.annot.set_visible(False)
                self.fig.canvas.draw_idle()

这个解决方案适用于悬停一行而不需要单击它:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# Need to create as global variable so our callback(on_plot_hover) can access
fig = plt.figure()
plot = fig.add_subplot(111)

# create some curves
for i in range(4):
    # Giving unique ids to each data member
    plot.plot(
        [i*1,i*2,i*3,i*4],
        gid=i)

def on_plot_hover(event):
    # Iterating over each data member plotted
    for curve in plot.get_lines():
        # Searching which data member corresponds to current mouse position
        if curve.contains(event)[0]:
            print("over %s" % curve.get_gid())
            
fig.canvas.mpl_connect('motion_notify_event', on_plot_hover)           
plt.show()

其他答案没有解决我在最新版本的Jupyter内联matplotlib图中正确显示工具提示的需求。这条是可行的:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
import mplcursors
np.random.seed(42)

fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.scatter(*np.random.random((2, 26)))
ax.set_title("Mouse over a point")
crs = mplcursors.cursor(ax,hover=True)

crs.connect("add", lambda sel: sel.annotation.set_text(
    'Point {},{}'.format(sel.target[0], sel.target[1])))
plt.show()

当用鼠标浏览一个点时，会导致如下图所示:

似乎这里的其他答案都不能回答这个问题。这是一个代码，它使用散点并在悬停在散点上时显示注释。

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np; np.random.seed(1)

x = np.random.rand(15)
y = np.random.rand(15)
names = np.array(list("ABCDEFGHIJKLMNO"))
c = np.random.randint(1,5,size=15)

norm = plt.Normalize(1,4)
cmap = plt.cm.RdYlGn

fig,ax = plt.subplots()
sc = plt.scatter(x,y,c=c, s=100, cmap=cmap, norm=norm)

annot = ax.annotate("", xy=(0,0), xytext=(20,20),textcoords="offset points",
                    bbox=dict(boxstyle="round", fc="w"),
                    arrowprops=dict(arrowstyle="->"))
annot.set_visible(False)

def update_annot(ind):

    pos = sc.get_offsets()[ind["ind"][0]]
    annot.xy = pos
    text = "{}, {}".format(" ".join(list(map(str,ind["ind"]))), 
                           " ".join([names[n] for n in ind["ind"]]))
    annot.set_text(text)
    annot.get_bbox_patch().set_facecolor(cmap(norm(c[ind["ind"][0]])))
    annot.get_bbox_patch().set_alpha(0.4)


def hover(event):
    vis = annot.get_visible()
    if event.inaxes == ax:
        cont, ind = sc.contains(event)
        if cont:
            update_annot(ind)
            annot.set_visible(True)
            fig.canvas.draw_idle()
        else:
            if vis:
                annot.set_visible(False)
                fig.canvas.draw_idle()

fig.canvas.mpl_connect("motion_notify_event", hover)

plt.show()

因为人们还想将这个解决方案用于线状图而不是散点图，所以下面的解决方案将用于图形(其工作方式略有不同)。

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import numpy as np; np.random.seed(1) x = np.sort(np.random.rand(15)) y = np.sort(np.random.rand(15)) names = np.array(list("ABCDEFGHIJKLMNO")) norm = plt.Normalize(1,4) cmap = plt.cm.RdYlGn fig,ax = plt.subplots() line, = plt.plot(x,y, marker="o") annot = ax.annotate("", xy=(0,0), xytext=(-20,20),textcoords="offset points", bbox=dict(boxstyle="round", fc="w"), arrowprops=dict(arrowstyle="->")) annot.set_visible(False) def update_annot(ind): x,y = line.get_data() annot.xy = (x[ind["ind"][0]], y[ind["ind"][0]]) text = "{}, {}".format(" ".join(list(map(str,ind["ind"]))), " ".join([names[n] for n in ind["ind"]])) annot.set_text(text) annot.get_bbox_patch().set_alpha(0.4) def hover(event): vis = annot.get_visible() if event.inaxes == ax: cont, ind = line.contains(event) if cont: update_annot(ind) annot.set_visible(True) fig.canvas.draw_idle() else: if vis: annot.set_visible(False) fig.canvas.draw_idle() fig.canvas.mpl_connect("motion_notify_event", hover) plt.show()

Mplcursors对我很有用。Mplcursors为matplotlib提供了可单击的注释。它很大程度上受到mpldatacursor (https://github.com/joferkington/mpldatacursor)的启发，具有非常简化的API

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
import mplcursors

data = np.outer(range(10), range(1, 5))

fig, ax = plt.subplots()
lines = ax.plot(data)
ax.set_title("Click somewhere on a line.\nRight-click to deselect.\n"
             "Annotations can be dragged.")

mplcursors.cursor(lines) # or just mplcursors.cursor()

plt.show()

我做了一个多行注释系统，添加到:https://stackoverflow.com/a/47166787/10302020。 最新版本: https://github.com/AidenBurgess/MultiAnnotationLineGraph

只需更改底部部分中的数据。

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt


def update_annot(ind, line, annot, ydata):
    x, y = line.get_data()
    annot.xy = (x[ind["ind"][0]], y[ind["ind"][0]])
    # Get x and y values, then format them to be displayed
    x_values = " ".join(list(map(str, ind["ind"])))
    y_values = " ".join(str(ydata[n]) for n in ind["ind"])
    text = "{}, {}".format(x_values, y_values)
    annot.set_text(text)
    annot.get_bbox_patch().set_alpha(0.4)


def hover(event, line_info):
    line, annot, ydata = line_info
    vis = annot.get_visible()
    if event.inaxes == ax:
        # Draw annotations if cursor in right position
        cont, ind = line.contains(event)
        if cont:
            update_annot(ind, line, annot, ydata)
            annot.set_visible(True)
            fig.canvas.draw_idle()
        else:
            # Don't draw annotations
            if vis:
                annot.set_visible(False)
                fig.canvas.draw_idle()


def plot_line(x, y):
    line, = plt.plot(x, y, marker="o")
    # Annotation style may be changed here
    annot = ax.annotate("", xy=(0, 0), xytext=(-20, 20), textcoords="offset points",
                        bbox=dict(boxstyle="round", fc="w"),
                        arrowprops=dict(arrowstyle="->"))
    annot.set_visible(False)
    line_info = [line, annot, y]
    fig.canvas.mpl_connect("motion_notify_event",
                           lambda event: hover(event, line_info))


# Your data values to plot
x1 = range(21)
y1 = range(0, 21)
x2 = range(21)
y2 = range(0, 42, 2)
# Plot line graphs
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
plot_line(x1, y1)
plot_line(x2, y2)
plt.show()
