python matplotlib increase bar label font size


I have a subplot which may include different stacked bar charts. I want to increase the font size of the bar label as it is appearing small. for ex. in

ax.bar(adjlocs, ...
 label='...', ...)

I want the font size of what is set to label to be larger. I did find ways to increase the text size of others in the plot except this one. How to achieve this? Thanks


Solution

  • Well, I got the answer. You can change the fontsize using ax.legend:

    ax.legend(loc='best', fontsize=25)
    

    Hope it helps anybody else with the same problem!
