I would like to format pi-based the y-axis which is in radians. However, when I try to test a previous solution How can I set the y axis in radians in a Python plot?, the result changes the scale making the figure shorter or making different tick values.
The original figure with the axis as float numbers is
plt.figure(figsize=(10,5))
plt.plot(t,ph,t,psi)
plt.show()
fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(111)
ax.plot(t,ph,t,psi)
unit = 1
y_tick = np.arange(-1, 4+unit, unit)
y_label = [r"$-\frac{\pi}{2}$", r"$0$", r"$+\frac{\pi}{2}$", r"$+\pi$", r"$+\frac{2\pi}{3}$", r"$+2\pi$"]
ax.set_yticks(y_tick*np.pi)
ax.set_yticklabels(y_label, fontsize=10)
y_label2 = [r"$" + format(r, ".2g")+ r"\pi$" for r in y_tick]
ax2 = ax.twinx()
ax2.set_yticks(y_tick*np.pi)
ax2.set_yticklabels(y_label2, fontsize=10)
plt.show()
The arrays of values of this figure are the following
