Hello Chris,

for only horizontal lines you can use 'ax.yaxis.grid' like:
---------------------------------------------------
from pylab import *
figure()
ax = axes()
ax.set_yticks([0.0,0.5,1.0], minor=False)
ax.set_yticks(list(linspace(0.0, 1.0, 11)), minor=True)
ax.yaxis.grid(which='minor')
show()
---------------------------------------------------

best regards,
Matthias
