matplotlib.matlab allows control of axis (border) display with
axis('off')
Is finer control offered?
If not, please consider the following an enhancement
request.
I like the behavior of gnuplot,
where borders are encoded in a 12-bit integer.
The bottom four bits control the border for a 2D plot.
Bit include plot axis/border:
1 bottom
2 left
4 top
8 right
I find it possible to mimic this using the new
axhline and axvline to a certain extent (but,
e.g., no tics). However a axvline placed at
ymin tends not to display on screen unless linewidth is
increased.
fwiw,
