formatting secondary y axis in pandas

Question

I am plotting a pandas DataFrame with several columns as below:

fig, ax = py.subplots(figsize=(11.7, 8.3))
df.plot(ax=ax, secondary_y=[A])

I can format the primary yaxis with a command as below:

ax.yaxis.set_major_formatter(FormatStrFormatter('%d days'))

How can I apply formatting to the secondary Y-axis (the one that displays on the right)?

Answer 1

You can access the secondary ax with ax.right_ax. See the pandas docs on this: Plotting on a secondary y-axis.
So you can do like this:

ax.right_ax.yaxis.set_major_formatter(FormatStrFormatter('%d days'))

Using matplotlib, you can also access it as ax.twinx()
