Re: [Matplotlib-users] I cannot change the axis tick separation or nbins in Axis artist
AxisArtist utilizes a different (compared to the vanilla matplotlib) mechanism for determining tick location etc., so some of the matplotlibcommands do not work. Unfortunately, AxisArtist is still not well documented, and things are often opaque. Below I implemented a method that you can use to control the nbins. To manually specify the tick locations you need to use the FixedLocator. IHTH, -JJ class TaylorDiagram(object): ... def set_nbins(self, nbins): ghelper = self._ax.get_grid_helper() # get grid_helper ghelper.grid_finder.grid_locator2.set_params(nbins=nbins) # update the parameter of the grid_locator2 (2 means 2nd coordinate). Helper. invalidate () # invalidate the helper so that new parameters become effective On Thu, Feb 21, 2013 at 6:08 PM, patricia wrote: > Dear Jody, > This is the original code that I am using: > http://old.nabble.com/Taylor-diagram-(2nd-take)-p33364690.html > It is a code that plots Taylor diagrams. > I would like to get ticks every two points in the standard deviation axis > of > the Taylor diagrams to avoid overlapping of labels (as I am making a figure > with several small Taylor Diagrams subplots). > Thanks! > Patricia > > > > -- > View this message in context: > http://matplotlib.1069221.n5.nabble.com/I-cannot-change-the-axis-tick-separation-or-nbins-in-Axis-artist-tp40446p40454.html > Sent from the matplotlib - users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > > -- > Everyone hates slow websites.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] I cannot change the axis tick separation or nbins in Axis artist
Dear Jody, This is the original code that I am using: http://old.nabble.com/Taylor-diagram-(2nd-take)-p33364690.html It is a code that plots Taylor diagrams. I would like to get ticks every two points in the standard deviation axis of the Taylor diagrams to avoid overlapping of labels (as I am making a figure with several small Taylor Diagrams subplots). Thanks!

Re: [Matplotlib-users] I cannot change the axis tick separation or nbins in Axis artist
Perhaps you could include some code that illustrates what you are trying to do? I'm confused if you are trying to do something simple and are just going about it the wrong way, or if you are doing something hard. If I do ax=axes() ax.plot(arange(1.,10.)) xticks(range(0,10,2)) yticks(range(0,10,2)) I get ticks every 2 points.

Does "xticks" not do what you want? Maybe I am misundertsanding because you are trying to do something with a raw Artist... http://matplotlib.org/api/pyplot_api.html?highlight=xticks#matplotlib.pyplot.xticks Cheers, Jody On Feb 20, 2013, at 10:31 AM, patricia wrote: > Hi, > I am working on a plot that requires AxisArtist and I cannot set the tick > separation (or nbins) that I want to avoid overlapping of ticklabels.

[Matplotlib-users] I cannot change the axis tick separation or nbins in Axis artist
Hi, I am working on a plot that requires AxisArtist and I cannot set the tick separation (or nbins) that I want to avoid overlapping of ticklabels. I read http://www.ce.mu.edu.tr/sharedoc/python-matplotlib-doc-1.0.1/html/mpl_toolkits/axes_grid/users/axisartist.html#gridhelper, where they suggest to use the classical set_ticks, but it doesn't work. ax.xaxis.set_ticks() does not makes any difference, the ticks are same as originally, and ax.axis["left"].set_ticks() results in an error: 'AxisArtist' object has no attribute 'set_ticks' Can somebody help me?
