What are you setting the x ticklabels to? If you want to control how the numbers are displayed, you can create a custom formatter (which is basically a function to convert a floating-point number to a string). If you want to control the number of ticks across the axis, you can make a custom ticker.
If you can describe what your end goal is, I'm happy to describe the above options in more detail. Cheers, Mike Jeremy Lewi wrote: > Hi, > I'm using imshow to make an image of a 2-d matrix.
