Hi,
I would like to add another annoying aspect of the "digits in the GUI":
When a log axis is used the displayed numbers looks like 10^-8.23
which is definitely not human readable.
Do somebody know a quick fix to obtain something like 5.89e-9 or 5.89x10^-9 ?
Thanks,
David

Ah...right. That works well enough (I believe that I originally had
editted backend_bases to circumvent the format_coord call--clearly not
the best solution)! I don't know of a good reason to *not* use the axis
formatting, but perhaps an rcparam could control this?
Thanks for the help Eric!

The GUI plots the x/y position of the cursor in data coordinates using
scientific notation including only three significant digits (ie
x=7.24e+03, y=20.2). The scientific notation is annoying but the lack of
significant digits (ie 7.2457e+03) makes it impossible to fully use the
GUI for interact

We are starting to use matplotlib to do some analysis of our data, but we
are hampered by the unfortunate choice of significant digits in the GUI.
I hacked the backends for 0.87.7 to display (many) more significant
digits and I was wondering if anyone had any better suggestions (ie that I
could
