Hi,
I want a more "detailed" grid for my logarithmic plotting. The following code:
from pylab import *
semilogy(range(100000))
grid(True)
show()
will produce output like this: http://i49.tinypic.com/2dpd3r.png
Notice that the grid uniformly slices the image. And some ticks on the
y-axis doesn't have grid lines. This is not want I want.
Conversely, something like this is preferred:

Thanks!
grid takes an optional argument "which". Unfortunately this is not
properly documented with pylab.grid and Axes.grid.
But see
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/api/axis_api.html?highlight=grid#matplotlib.axis.Axis.grid
grid(True) # this turns on gridlines for major ticks
grid(True, which="minor") # this turns on gridlines for minor ticks.

I think he wants to turn the grid on
for both major and minor ticks. I’m interested in that also. Is there a
way to do that?
