You are welcome Gus :) Go ahead and try these too.. I am assuming that you are experimenting in Ipython with --pylab.
Use ? or ?? or browse and read for more information regarding to the usage of functions (http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/api/pyplot_api.html) I am sure gallery has some extra demonstration, too setp(labels, 'rotation', 'vertical') xticklabels = getp(gca(), 'xticklabels') setp(xticklabels, fontsize=14, weight='bold') Have fun :) Gökhan On Sat, May 30, 2009 at 8:17 PM, W.
