Hi, Thank you for pointing that out, that does indeed do what I want mostly. However, while the data is autoscaled to the plot, the values on the y axis are not updated and they remain at their original values. I suspect this is because I am not giving a command to redraw the axes. How would I go about doing that? I think I need to blit a larger bbox that encompasses the axes as well, but I'm not sure how to get that. By the way, I found that self.ax1.autoscale_view(scalex=False, scaley = True) seems to autoscale just the y axis and seems clearer than the set_ylim code suggested below. Thanks again, Glenn
