orientation

legend.orientation(p0: str) → int

Set the legend bar to be either vertical or horizontal.

The normal orientation is vertical. If orientation is set to horizontal, be aware that width is now in the y-direction, height in the x-direction, and that label sizes become more important to avoid overlaps (even though it will attempt to alleviate this by alternating sides if needed).

Args:

p0:

‘layout’

• vertical

• horizontal

Examples:

ensight.legend.select_palette_begin("velocity")
ensight.legend.visible("ON")
ensight.legend.orientation("horizontal")
ensight.legend.select_palette_begin("pressure")
ensight.legend.orientation("vertical")

Returns:

zero on success, non-zero on error
