I would like a specific cell in a table to be 'center' aligned.
I used cell._text.set_horizontalalignment('center') and cell._text.set_verticalalignment('center'), but it is not making any changes in the cell.
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import matplotlib.gridspec as gridspec
a = np.array([[1,2,3],[4,5,6],[7,8,9]])
gs = gridspec.GridSpec(4, 2)
subplot=plt.subplot(gs[0, 0])
tab = plt.table(cellText=a,bbox = [-0.15,0,1.25,1])
subplot.axis('off')
for key, cell in tab.get_celld().items():
row, col = key
if row==1 and col==1:
cell._text.set_weight('bold')
cell._text.set_horizontalalignment('center')
cell._text.set_verticalalignment('center')
plt.show()
cell._text.set_weight('bold') sets the text in Bold weight. But text alignment is not working.
