使用 mpatches.Patch 自定义图例

我使用以下代码创建自定义 matplotlib 图例。

import matplotlib.patches as mpatches
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
colors = ["g", "w"]
texts = ["Green Data Description", "RedData Description"]
patches = [ mpatches.Patch(color=colors[i], label="{:s}".format(texts[i]) ) for i in range(len(texts)) ]
plt.legend(handles=patches, bbox_to_anchor=(0.5, 0.5), loc='center', ncol=2 )

结果图例如下：

1 - 图例中的白色符号未显示，因为默认图例背景也是白色。如何将图例背景设置为其他颜色？

2-如何将图例中的矩形符号改为圆形？

尝试这个：

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.patches as mpatches
from matplotlib.legend_handler import HandlerPatch
colors = ["g", "w"]
texts = ["Green Data Description", "RedData Description"]
class HandlerEllipse(HandlerPatch):
    def create_artists(self, legend, orig_handle,
                       xdescent, ydescent, width, height, fontsize, trans):
        center = 0.5 * width - 0.5 * xdescent, 0.5 * height - 0.5 * ydescent
        p = mpatches.Ellipse(xy=center, width=width + xdescent,
                             height=height + ydescent)
        self.update_prop(p, orig_handle, legend)
        p.set_transform(trans)
        return [p]


c = [ mpatches.Circle((0.5, 0.5), 1, facecolor=colors[i], linewidth=3) for i in range(len(texts))]
plt.legend(c,texts,bbox_to_anchor=(0.5, 0.5), loc='center', ncol=2, handler_map={mpatches.Circle: HandlerEllipse()}).get_frame().set_facecolor('#00FFCC')
plt.show()

output:

Update:

要画圆，请设置宽度等于高度，单位为mpatches.Ellipse

去掉外面的黑线，设置edgecolor="none" in mpatches.Circle

code:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.patches as mpatches
from matplotlib.legend_handler import HandlerPatch
colors = ["g", "w"]
texts = ["Green Data Description", "RedData Description"]
class HandlerEllipse(HandlerPatch):
    def create_artists(self, legend, orig_handle,
                       xdescent, ydescent, width, height, fontsize, trans):
        center = 0.5 * width - 0.5 * xdescent, 0.5 * height - 0.5 * ydescent
        p = mpatches.Ellipse(xy=center, width=height + xdescent,
                             height=height + ydescent)
        self.update_prop(p, orig_handle, legend)
        p.set_transform(trans)
        return [p]


c = [ mpatches.Circle((0.5, 0.5), radius = 0.25, facecolor=colors[i], edgecolor="none" ) for i in range(len(texts))]
plt.legend(c,texts,bbox_to_anchor=(0.5, 0.5), loc='center', ncol=2, handler_map={mpatches.Circle: HandlerEllipse()}).get_frame().set_facecolor('#00FFCC')
plt.show()
