Hi Blake, the following addition should do what you want:
self.ax = self.fig.add_subplot(1,1,1, autoscale_on=False, xlim=(0, 100), ylim=(0, 100)) or by hand after creation of the axes self.ax.set_autoscale_on(False) xlim(...) # or self.ax.set_xlim(...) ylim(...) That is you switch off matplotlibs autoscaling and set proper x/y limits initially. With that you can remove all further xlim/ylim calls.
