Take a look at the artist API tutorial http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/pycon/artist_api_tut.pdf which covers all the main objects in the matplotlib figure and how to customize them. The final two sections "The Axis containers" and "The Tick containers" will be particularly useful. Here is an example which sets some properties on the yaxis tick lines: for line in ax.yaxis.get_ticklines(): # line is a matplotlib.lines.Line2D instance line.set_color('green') line.set_markersize(25) line.set_markeredgewidth(3) JDH ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
