Multiple lines of x tick labels in matplotlib

by

this gets close:

xtick

fig = plt.figure( figsize=(8, 4 ) )
ax = fig.add_axes( [.05, .1, .9, .85 ] )
ax.set_yticks( np.linspace(0, 200, 11 ) )

xticks = [ 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10 ]
xticks_minor = [ 1, 5, 7, 9, 11 ]
xlbls = [ 'background', '5 year statistical summary', 'future build',
          'maximum day', '90th percentile day', 'average day' ]

ax.set_xticks( xticks )
ax.set_xticks( xticks_minor, minor=True )
ax.set_xticklabels( xlbls )
ax.set_xlim( 1, 11 )

ax.grid( 'off', axis="x" )
ax.grid( 'off', axis="x", which="minor" )

# vertical alignment of xtick labels
va = [ 0, -.05, 0, -.05, -.05, -.05 ]
for t, y in zip( ax.get_xticklabels( ), va ):
    t.set_y( y )

ax.tick_params( axis="x", which="minor", direction='out', length=30 )
ax.tick_params( axis="x", which="major", bottom='off', top='off' )
