help with view_limits

Community matplotlib-users

I'd like to set the ticks on the y axis such that they do not display
anything lower than 0, even if part of the graph below 0 is visible.
I tried to do this with

ylocator = AutoLocator()
ylocator.view_limits(0, 100)
self.subplot.yaxis.set_major_locator(ylocator)

but it is not changing anything. How can I do this?

Thank you,
Che

Hi Che,

I think turning off autoscaling is what you need:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
ax = plt.subplot(111, autoscaley_on=False, ylim=(0, 100))
plt.plot([1, 2], [-40, 40])
plt.show()

Kind regards,
Matthias
