I have about 20 years of monthly data to plot using plot_date. The data are datetime dates and floats. As usual, the ticks are chosen very nicely for the floats. But far too many dates are ticked, and their text completely overlaps. Even if I use autofmt_xdate(), which allows me to at least read them, they are far too crowded.
What is the simplest way to force fewer date labels?
