The width in pixels/proportion of axis is dependent on the range of the x-axis, which you can set manually too. There's probably a more elegant way of doing this, but here's a quick and dirty method for interactive mode (ipython/pylab): # Make a figure, catch the reference as f f = figure(1) # Draw some bars bar_list = bar(array([0,0.5,1.0]), array([1.0,2.0,3.0]), width = 0.25) # Get the subplot (f.axes is a list containing the subplots) s = f.axes[0] # Set the x-axis limits of the subplot s.set_xlim((-5.0, 5.0)) # Redraw draw() Fred ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
