Hi all. is it not possible to extend plot outside of a plot area? To illustrate what I want to do take for example the wind barbs example from the matplotlib gallery. (see below)
I only changed line 23 from ax.barbs(X, Y, U, V) to ax.barbs(X, Y, - U, -V) But now we don't see the tail of the barbs in the first subplot. So Is it possible to let matplotlib plot the tail, without extending the axes? Best Regards Einar M.
