Well, I see the problem. One solution is to use custom Formatter for yticks/xticks (e.g. FixedFormatter or FormatStrFormatter) to ensure that tick labels have the same width/height (printed with the same precision or padded with spaces). User's Guide explains how to use formatters. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
