Hello,
In the following code (using matplotlib svn), I’m trying to set the left (log) axis “outward” using spines. Subplots 222 and 223 have “weird” behaviors. Am I using the API incorrectly? I got it to work by calling ax.set_yscale(‘log’) twice (subplot 224). Where should I start if I want to contribute a patch?
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.rcParams[“xtick.direction”] = “out”
plt.rcParams[“ytick.direction”] = “out”
x = [.5, 111,68, 192, 340, 325]
fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(221)
ax.set_yscale(‘log’)
ax.bar(range(len(x)), x, align=‘center’)
ax = fig.add_subplot(222)
ax.set_yscale(‘log’)
ax.bar(range(len(x)), x, align=‘center’)
ax.spines[“left”].set_position((“outward”, 10))
ax = fig.add_subplot(223)
ax.bar(range(len(x)), x, align=‘center’)
ax.spines[“left”].set_position((“outward”, 10))
ax.set_yscale(‘log’)
ax = fig.add_subplot(224)
ax.set_yscale(‘log’)
ax.bar(range(len(x)), x, align=‘center’)
ax.spines[“left”].set_position((“outward”, 10))
ax.set_yscale(‘log’)
plt.show()
EOF
Thanks for your help.
Best regards,
