Adding units to heatmap annotation in Seaborn

I am trying to show a table of percentages as a heatmap in Seaborn:

sns.heatmap(S, annot=True, fmt=".1f", linewidths=1.0, square=1)

However, I'd like the percent sign to appear after each number in the heatmap annotations. The fmt flag only seems to accept number format specifiers. Is there a way to do this either within Seaborn or with some matplotlib tweaking?

You will have to both adjust the format of your 'annotations' using the fmt parameter AND the 'colorbar' using cbar_kws.

from matplotlib.ticker import FuncFormatter
fmt = lambda x,pos:'{:.0%}'.format(x)
hm = sns.heatmap(data=S, annot=True, ax=ax1, fmt='.1%', cbar_kws={'format': FuncFormatter(fmt)})

For reference check this seaborn issue.

Replace the ".1f" to ".1%". And it should solve your problem.

sns.heatmap(S, annot=True, fmt=".1%", linewidths=1.0, square=1)

You have to iterate over all text values of a heatmap and add % sign:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import seaborn as sns
import numpy as np
from matplotlib.ticker import FuncFormatter

sns.set()
fig, ax0 = plt.subplots(1,1)
data = np.array([[10.01,20.20],[-0.23,0.],[23.1049,-100.000000]])
ax = sns.heatmap(data, annot=True, fmt = '.1f', square=1, linewidth=1.)
for t in ax.texts: t.set_text(t.get_text() + " %")
plt.show()
