pan/zoom appears to be broken in the sharex axis demo. If you do a zoom to rect on ax2 or ax3 in examples/pylab_examples/shared_axis_demo.py the event seems to be swallowed, though a zoom in ax1 is respected.
I know Eric was recently working on autoscale support for sharex axes r6315 | efiring | 2008-10-23 19:08:58 -0500 (Thu, 23 Oct 2008) | 2 lines Support autoscaling with shared axes And perhaps the current bug is related to the problem Michael wrote about earlier in the thread: "shared axes" bug in matplotlib 0.98 Back when the 0.98 transformations were being written, John and I had a long discussion about whether data limits should be Bbox-like or pair-of-intervals-like, and we ultimately decided to leave things as-is to avoid creating too much newness at once. IMHO, however, the real problem is that the shared axes mechanism doesn't know whether the limits are changing because of autoscaling (in which case the limits should be unioned together), or panning/zooming, in which case the limits need to be replaced. The second problem is probably necessary to fix whether we use Bboxes or not.
