Sture Did you look in the mail archive - there is a thread titled: " x-axis Label in hh:mm:ss format" which addresses this. Derek
>>> Sture Lygren <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 2007/02/12 12:14:26 PM >>> Hi, Been reading the docs but couldn't find an easy solution for this one ... I've got a dataset containing dates and measurement (['2006-12-26 00:00:10','2006-12-26 00:00:20',...], [10.1722,7.99665,...]). Converting dates using time.strptime, datetime and date2num I end up with this dataset ([732671.000116,732671.000231,...],[10.1722,7.99665,...]) Question now is - how can I plot this set with x-axis ticks showing '00:00:00','00:00:10' and so on? The dataset spans 24 hours of measurements - how, if at all possible, do I specify major ticks for every 6 hour? Help is much appreciated! regards, Sture ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
