You can set the size of the axes you want using ax = fig.add_axes([left, bottom, width, height]) where all numbers are fractions of figure size, eg ax = fig.add_axes([0.1, 0.1, 0.8, 0.8]) My guess is what you are experiencing may result from the image aspect handling. Try setting the aspect to 'auto' when you create your image ax.imshow(X, aspect=' auto') JDH ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
