Erik, Instead of changing the figure size, you can use the pyplot subplots_adjust() function or the Figure.subplots_adjust() method to change the axes size and positioning within the figure. Another approach is to use the subplotpars kwarg to adjust the positioning parameters when initializing the figure.
