And if you want to tweak the positions you can use, e.g., oldpos = ax1.get_position() to find out the present position, and ax1.set_position(newpos) to change it. The position rectangles are [left, bottom, width, height] in relative coordinates--that is, fractions of the figure width and height. If you want to control the aspect ratio of the data without changing the position rectangle (e.g. after adjusting it as above), use ax1.set_aspect(aspect, adjustable='datalim').
