How to get current value of xlim/ylim?

Hello List,

assume I'm creating a plot via

f = Figure(figsize=(5,4), dpi=100)
graph = f.add_subplot(111, autoscale_on=False, xlim=[4,50], ybound=-2)
graph.plot(x,y,"g--o", ms=5)

then the user zooms around a little does this and that.
Now I want to draw a second plot, which uses the new xlim and ylim
values from the old plot (i.e. has the same scaling). How can read out
those values?

best wishes

Hi,
I could help myself with

graph.get_xlim()

which I found after finally guessing the right expressions for Google,
but I wonder how I could have found it in the help() output...
I've been searching that for quite sometime and didn't come up with
anything...
So, how could I have helped myself, without annoying you? :wink:

best wishes
