Time in x axis matplotlib overlap

Question

I plot bitrate in time with following function

#!/usr/bin/python3
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import datetime

def plotBitrate(time,bitrate,filename):
    ti         


        

Answer 1

The autofmt_xdate() is indeed a good way of preventing overlapping labels. However, pyplot does not have this method, instead, it's a method of figure.

Therefore

plt.gcf().autofmt_xdate()

would do the job.
