Is there any way to get the length (in pixels) of a particular axis?
More specifically I am trying to make a clean-looking Formatter object that
spaces out the labels so that the text does not write on
top of each other, but in order to do so, I need to know the length of the Axis
that the Formatter object is being applied to. Is
there any easy (or proper) way to do this?
While I am on the topic, are there any ways to get the pixel size of a string
if it were to be rendered as text? I know that Qt can
do this, but I wasn't sure if the matplotlib backend system has this
implemented to make it generic for all backends. Right now I
just have a hard-coded parameter for this, but it would be nice to make more
automatic.
Thanks,
