I am trying to plot a bar. But it shows Runtime error, and shows In FT2Font: Can not load face. at the Botton.
I have tried uninstall and install it again. And tried another method, but still can not work. I think the code is right, because I successfully run it on a windows laptop. And my jupyter notebook is for Mac python 2.7.
The code is as following:
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
obj = pd.Series([4, 7, -5, 3])
print type(obj)
obj
%matplotlib inline
obj.plot(kind = 'bar', figsize=[5,4])
But it shows some error :
<matplotlib.axes._subplots.AxesSubplot at 0x1114e69d0>

I was facing same issue while using anaconda and spyder with python 3+ on MacOS.
I am not sure if this solution would work for you but i solved it by deleting all files and folder in:
/Users/YOUR_USER/.matplotlib
and then uninstalling and reinstalling 'matplotlib' from my environment in Anaconda Navigator.
I just had this error - looking through the matplotlib debug logs, everything seemed ok. However, when I checked the path of the font that had been selected, the file size was 0KB. Maybe it got corrupted when matplotlib was being installed.
Copying the font file from another machine into the font directory fixed the problem.
Fyi, the path is %CONDA_ENV%\Lib\site-packages\matplotlib\mpl-data\fonts\ttf (I'm using conda on Windows, but the path should be the same relative to your site-packages directory on your local installation). Reinstalling matplotlib will fix the issue, but it's worth checking this folder, just in case the issue is just one bad font file.

I'm fairly new to Python, and I have just purchased a M1 MacBook Air. I'm trying to reproduce some of the codes I've written in my previous windows computer, and they do not seem to be working properly.
When I try to use Matplotlib with LaTEx, I get an error stating that there is a missing font. The funny thing is that the same code runs fine as a regular .py (python) file, but shows an error message when I run it as a .ipynb (Jupyter notebook) file!
#Loads libraries
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
print("Finished imports")
#Sets default interpreter to Latex
plt.rcParams.update({
"text.usetex": True,
"font.family": "Helvetica"
})
print("Setted Latex interpreter")
%matplotlib inline
A = np.array([1,2,3])
B=A
plt.figure()
plt.plot(A,B)
print("Printed figure")
The error message that displays is the following:
`Finished imports
Setted Latex interpreter

I've installed MacTex, so I believe that LaTEx should be installed.
What is interesting is that:
The code works fine when I run it from the terminal (using a regular .py file, instead of the Jupyter notebook);
The plot is successfully generated if I omit the lines that se the default interpreter to LaTEx.
I've installed python through Anaconda, and I've tried to run the code on Jupyter notebook, Jupyter lab and on VS Code.
Thank you - and sorry in advance if the question is not properly formatted. This is my first question asked here in Stack Overflow. :-)
I know there are a few similar questions related to this but I have absolutely no idea on what to do. I am absolutely a newbie when it comes to this so if possible a step-by-step guide would be extremely helpful.
So I have been trying to write a simple code in Jupyter notebook:
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from matplotlib import rc
rc('text', usetex=True)
plt.rcParams.update({'font.size': 22})
zeta = np.arange(10**-6,10**4,1000)
N0 = 50
ns = 1-(3*(1+16*zeta*N0/3))/(N0*(1+8*zeta*N0))
plt.plot(zeta,ns)
plt.show()
This is my code. And I am getting the following error:

I am not sure if I should be placing the whole error here but this is what I am getting when I try plotting the graph. The only thing which I could think of is the fact that some file which is used to write things on the graph is missing but I don't know how to resolve this. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank You.
I just came across the same error, in my case I needed to use latex. I found out that if other fonts are correctly installed, changing the default font can resolve the issue:
plt.rcParams.update({
"text.usetex": True,
"font.family": "sans-serif",
"font.sans-serif": ["Helvetica"]})
You could insert this script at line 6 of your code and see if it helps.
I didn't follow from what you posted what you were looking to be font size 22, and so this does it for the labels of the axis ticks.
Simpler version of what you posted:
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
zeta = np.arange(10**-6,10**4,1000)
N0 = 50
ns = 1-(3*(1+16*zeta*N0/3))/(N0*(1+8*zeta*N0))
plt.plot(zeta,ns)
plt.tick_params(labelsize=22)
plt.show()
You can go to here in my comment, open a notebook after the session spins up, and test that code there. You should see it should work. If it doesn't work the same way where you are trying you have something out of date.
The tick formatting basics are illustrated right at the top of Matplotlib's tick formatters documentation in the first block of code. You shouldn't need rc or rcParams any longer in most cases. The syntax is much more obvious now. Any answers using that are either outdated as they aren't using the provided routes or they are covering unusual / edge cases.
I have searched in many forums for an answer to this question, but not found anything that works for me or fully answers the question of what the error means. Below is a reproducible example:
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
xTest = [.1,.2,.1]
yTest = [.1,.2,.1]
circleLabels = [0,1,0]
colormap = np.array(['r', 'b'])
colorVec = colormap[circleLabels]
plt.plot(xTest, yTest,"o",color = colorVec)
plt.xlabel('x coordinate')
plt.ylabel('y coordinate')
plt.title("scatterplot of circle points")
Which gives me the error:

Following some similar answers, I have tried:
swapping out the c parameter for color -> no effect
using np.squeeze on the color array -> no effect
using a 2-d array for the color vector, with an array of rgb values instead of the string literals "r" and "b" or "red" and "green" -> no effect
Does anyone know how I can fix this while still using the pyplot.plot() function?
Thank you,

I was going through some of the Quantitative Finance tutorials on Quantopia, when I encountered a problem in creating a histogram. Originally, I used my data set, X, and plotted it in a graph. The graph was displayed in the notebook, but when I tried to run the last line in the code shown, I got a number of traceback errors.
I managed to make the histogram by removing the lines of code which plotted X to a graph, but I'm confused as to why I can't create both a graph and a histogram. Is the object being changed somewhere along the way? My apologies if this is something rudimentary, I am fairly new to coding, and this is my first question on Stack Exchange. If it helps, the Quantopia notebooks are on Python 2.7. Thanks, and have a great day.

I just upgraded matplotlib to matplotlib2.0. As far I could see nothing was supposed to change in the basic use, yet I now have this strange bu with rgb coding :
myDF_DoMS.mean().plot(color =(0.2,0.2,0.7),xticks=np.arange(1,31,1))
plt.plot([1,32],[zeMeanS,zeMeanS],color=(0.2,0.7,0.9))
plt.xlabel('xlabel')
plt.ylabel('Some Score')
plt.title(Study+"\n A name")
plt.show()
Complaints from the kernel :
ValueError: Invalid RGBA argument: 0.2
(full error stack below)
suddently 0.2 is not a float anymore !
What's worst if I put 'b' it works
while on line 2 the other 'rgb' list on line 2 works fine (color=(0.2,0.7,0.9)) ...
I'm a bit lost.
Setting :
Copy of a cell in a jupyter notebook that use to work perfectly.

If your dataframe to plot has 3 columns, the color specification as color=(0.2,0.2,0.7) is ambiguous. It could well be interpreted as a tuple of colors, in which case 0.2 would be the color for the first column to plot. However, 0.2 is not a valid color after all and thus the error.
An option is to use
color=matplotlib.colors.to_hex((0.2,0.2,0.9))
or directly use the hex equivalent
color="#3333e5"
By the way, I don't think that this behaviour has changed between matplotlib versions, so it may just be that you use a different dataframe now(?).
