[Matplotlib-users] sensible tick labels for log scale?

2011-01-12 Thread Christopher Fonnesbeck
I'm wondering if there is a way of automating tick labeling on log-scale axes, so that labels do not overlap. Specifically, when the values get large, they overlap which makes the labels unreadable. I would expect them to automatically get more sparse with the axis value, as they do when you gen

My apologies in advance if this is obvious. I have a bar chart with three sets of figures and I would like some space between the three sets. I cannot seem to find anything in the manual or online which explains how to separate sets of data. I tried adding a blank (white bar) with 0 data and tha

Um, after seriously playing with the file I realized that the suggested workaround of generating a closed single polygon won't work for me: I need the individual quads or triangles in the plot as they correspond to FEM simulation elements and have stress values assigned to them... As far as I unde

Hi, the same happens with "regular" colorbars, too. Me, too, I didn't always have this issue but I can't tell when exactly it was introduced. Looks more like a bug than a feature to me---at least on screen the result looks ugly. Best regards, Daniel 2011/1/12 : > Hi, > I used the colorbar with
