Matplotlib is a library in Python and it is numerical – mathematical extension for NumPy library. The figure module provides the top-level Artist, the Figure, which contains all the plot elements. This module is used to control the default spacing of the subplots and top level container for all plot elements.

matplotlib.figure.Figure.get_facecolor() method

The get_facecolor() method figure module of matplotlib library is used to get the face color of the Figure rectangle.

Syntax: get_facecolor(self)

Parameters: This method does not accept any parameters.

Returns: This method return the face color of the Figure rectangle.

Below examples illustrate the matplotlib.figure.Figure.get_facecolor() function in matplotlib.figure:

Example 1:




# Implementation of matplotlib function 
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt 
from matplotlib.figure import Figure
from mpl_toolkits.axisartist.axislines import Subplot 
import numpy as np 
  
  
fig = plt.figure() 
      
ax = Subplot(fig, 111
fig.add_subplot(ax)  
  
w = fig.get_facecolor()
ax.text(0.3, 0.5,
        "Value Return by get_facecolor() :\n    " 
        +str(w),
        fontweight ="bold")
    
fig.canvas.draw()
fig.suptitle('matplotlib.figure.Figure.get_facecolor() \
function Example', fontweight ="bold"
  
plt.show()


Output:

Example 2:




# Implementation of matplotlib function 
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt 
from matplotlib.figure import Figure
import numpy as np 
  
  
fig = plt.figure(facecolor = "red", figsize =(7, 6)) 
      
ax = fig.add_axes([0.1, 0.1, 0.8, 0.8])
    
xx = np.arange(0, 2 * np.pi, 0.01
ax.plot(xx, np.sin(xx)) 
  
w = fig.get_facecolor()
ax.text(2, 0
        "Value Return by get_facecolor() :\n"
        +str(w),
        fontweight ="bold")
    
fig.canvas.draw()
  
fig.suptitle('matplotlib.figure.Figure.get_facecolor()\
function Example', fontweight ="bold"
  
plt.show()


Output:
