I am trying to scale the y axis like this:
a = axes(gca())
a.set_ylim((-1.25, 1.25))
This works fine when yticks is non-empty. However, if I do
a.set_yticks([])
either before or after the set_ylim call, the y axis is not scaled.
I also tried to use
a.yaxis.set_major_locator(NullLocator())
instead of calling set_yticks([]), but to no avail.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
