Changing the figsize in the upsetplot module

Question

How I can change the figsize in the upsetplot module in Python? I see that there is a fig parameter, but I don't get how to assign a new figure with a predefined size to it.

Answer 1

You can use matplotlib to define a figure, and then pass it to upsetplot. However, the figure size is reset automatically by upsetplot unless element_size=None is set.

So please use something like:

from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
from upsetplot import generate_counts, plot

example = generate_counts()
fig = plt.figure(figsize=(10, 3))
plot(example, fig=fig, element_size=None)
plt.show()
