With the current release 0.99.1 minor grid lines get drawn above major
grid lines. This makes it impossible, for example, to have a dark gray
major grid and a light gray minor grid because the minor grid will
overwrite the major grid. I'm assuming this is a bug but maybe there is a
design reason for this?
As far as I can tell this behaviour comes down to
matplotlib.axis.Axis.iter_ticks returning the major ticks before the minor
ticks. I made a one line change to matplotlib.axis.Axis.draw (attached)
that simply reverses the order that ticks are plotted in.
I will admit though that I don't follow Matplotlib development closely and
only tested the fix on the released version so if this has already been
fixed or there are unintended consequences I'm not aware of please ignore
the noise.
Thanks,
