Axes.
locator_params
(axis='both', tight=None, **kwargs)¶Control behavior of tick locators.
Keyword arguments:
autoscale_view()
.
Default is None, for no change.Remaining keyword arguments are passed to directly to the
set_params()
method.
Typically one might want to reduce the maximum number of ticks and use tight bounds when plotting small subplots, for example:
ax.locator_params(tight=True, nbins=4)
Because the locator is involved in autoscaling,
autoscale_view()
is called automatically after
the parameters are changed.
This presently works only for the
MaxNLocator
used
by default on linear axes, but it may be generalized.
