I'm using python.org python on a Mac and it's not clear to me how best to install Qt - so at the moment Tk is the only working backend I have. > You can use the subplot_adjust button on the toolbar for some degree of > customization.

I don't know about the widget - that is fantastic and it will make a huge difference... It is slightly confusing since I have been working with the set_position type numbers, but being able to change them interactively will save a lot of time. Another thing I've noticed is that the pdf output is always slightly different to the displayed output - for example some text might be cut off on the interactive view, but the saved pdf is fine... Is this also a known behaviour?
