First of all I cannot confirm your observation with the online version of the example at http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/pylab/date_demo_convert.py Maybe the function "fig.autofmt_xdate" is not included in your version of the example. With that function you have many possibilities to change the x-date-format, e.g. fig.autofmt_xdate(bottom=0.3, rotation=45) or you can extend the space between the axes and the border of the figure yourself using subplots_adjust(bottom=0.2) best regards Matthias ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
