I am using the first bar graph listed at this site:

The problem I have is that there is too much white space around the graph.
My data would be better displayed if I could widen the graph into the space
to the right and left of the chart.

To tweak the amount of padding around the matplotlib axes, you can use pyplot.subplots_adjust [1] or Figure.subplots_adjust [2].

In most cases, the tight_layout function/method [3,4] will give you sensible settings for the various spacing parameters.

You probably also have to adjust the figure size (see David Lowry-Duda's reply) to get whatever effect it is that you want.
