Syntax error Hide axis values but keep axis tick labels in matplotlib

Hide axis values but keep axis tick labels in matplotlib

To hide the axis value but to keep the axis tick labels, we can perform the following steps −

  • Plot a line using the plot( ) method.

  • Set X and Y labels using x label and y label methods.

  • Using plt.gca(), get the current axis, creating one if necessary.

  • Use xaxis.set_ticklabels() with an empty list.

  • Use yaxis.set_ticklabels() with an empty list.

  • To show the diagram, use the plt.show() method.

Example

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

plt.plot([0, 5], [0, 5])

plt.ylabel("Y-axis ")
plt.xlabel("X-axis ")

ax = plt.gca()
ax.axes.xaxis.set_ticklabels([])
ax.axes.yaxis.set_ticklabels([])
plt.show()
