I'm afraid I haven't been able to make very much progress with this on my own. I tried calling get_children on the figure objects I have, and then tried calling set_axes with the subplot of a new figure on each of the children in the hope that this would bind them over, but after playing a bit nothing I've tried seems to work. Is it possible to do this, or even if it is is it perhaps too complicated/involved to be worth while? (I had hoped it would be relatively straightforward once I found the right combination of get/set functions to move the plot objects over to the new subplot).
