Hi,
The normal rectangular Axes class and the derived PolarAxes class both
have set_xlim() and set_ylim() functions, but the rectangular Axes class
has a default value of False for the 'emit' argument, whereas the
PolarAxes version has True. I had a figure containing three Axes
instances, arranged as one 'main' plot and two subsidiary plots. I
wanted the subsidiary plots to have their x- and y-limits slaved to
changes in the main plot's, but with the current default value of
'emit', I wasn't getting callbacks when I used the navigation toolbar to
pan/zoom around the main plot. Would there be any disadvantage to
changing the default value to True, as in the patch below? (I haven't
looked at all callers of set_xlim() so I could well be missing a good
reason why this isn't currently done.)
Thanks,
Ben.
