Hi All:
I’m working on a wxPython GUI that uses matplotlib.
This program reads “chunks” of a data file into
a numpy array and than plots it using imshow.
The first chunk works great. But, when I load chunks 2
to N, how can I specify the different values for the labels on the x axis?
I tried using “axes.set_xlim”. This did
reposition the x axis as hoped, but the data is always being drawn back at the “zero”
offset.
Is there a way to tell the axis to map the array to a
different x range?
I can’t read the whole file at once, it’s just
too big
THANXS

Does the ‘extent’ keyword argument to imshow do what you want?

You can pass "extent=(left, right, bottom, top)" to imshow to specify what the pixels in the array correspond to in data space.
