My matplotlib.pyplot legend is being cut off

Question

I\'m attempting to create a plot with a legend to the side of it using matplotlib. I can see that the plot is being created, but the image bounds do not allow the entire legend

Answer 1

Just use plt.tight_layout()

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
    
fig = plt.figure(1)
plt.plot([1, 2, 3], [1, 0, 1], label='A')
plt.plot([1, 2, 3], [1, 2, 2], label='B')
plt.legend(loc='center left', bbox_to_anchor=(1, 0))

plt.tight_layout()

This is probably introduced in the newer matplotlib version and neatly does the job.
