Though with a little hacking, you can emulate it by manually drawing everything yourself -- this is the approach SAGE takes. Eg, import numpy as np from pylab import figure, show import matplotlib.lines as lines def make_xaxis(ax, yloc, offset=0.05, **props): xmin, xmax = ax.get_xlim() locs = [loc for loc in ax.xaxis.get_majorticklocs() if loc>=xmin and loc<=xmax] tickline, = ax.plot(locs, [yloc]*len(locs),linestyle='', marker=lines.TICKDOWN, **props) axline, = ax.plot([xmin, xmax], [yloc, yloc], **props) tickline.set_clip_on(False) axline.set_clip_on(False) for loc in locs: ax.text(loc, yloc-offset, '%1.1f'%loc, horizontalalignment='center', verticalalignment='top') def make_yaxis(ax, xloc=0, offset=0.05, **props): ymin, ymax = ax.get_ylim() locs = [loc for loc in ax.yaxis.get_majorticklocs() if loc>=ymin and loc<=ymax] tickline, = ax.plot([xloc]*len(locs), locs, linestyle='', marker=lines.TICKLEFT, **props) axline, = ax.plot([xloc, xloc], [ymin, ymax], **props) tickline.set_clip_on(False) axline.set_clip_on(False) for loc in locs: ax.text(xloc-offset, loc, '%1.1f'%loc, verticalalignment='center', horizontalalignment='right') props = dict(color='black', linewidth=2, markeredgewidth=2) x = np.arange(200.) y = np.sin(2*np.pi*x/200.) + np.random.rand(200)-0.5 fig = figure(facecolor='white') ax = fig.add_subplot(111, frame_on=False) ax.axison = False ax.plot(x, y, 'd', markersize=8, markerfacecolor='blue') ax.set_xlim(0, 200) ax.set_ylim(-1.5, 1.5) make_xaxis(ax, 0, offset=0.1, **props) make_yaxis(ax, 0, offset=5, **props) fig.savefig('manual_axis.png', dpi=100, facecolor='white', edgecolor='white') show()
