axes_grid toolkit uses slightly customized version of axes and
different kind of artists are used to draw ticks and ticklabels, and
some of the commands from original mpl do not work.
But not changing fontsize and not showing up gridlines are things that
should be fixed (I'll work on these in a few days).
Meanwhile, there are workarounds.
For fontsize, try to directly set the font size of the label object.
Unfortunately, the padding between the label and the axis get messed
up, and you need to adjust the padding manually.
host.axis["bottom"].label.set_size(30)
host.axis["bottom"].LABELPAD=10
For grid, it is a bit more tricky.
host.xaxis.set_visible(True)
host.yaxis.set_visible(True)
host.xaxis.get_label().set_visible(False)
host.yaxis.get_label().set_visible(False)
for a in host.xaxis.majorTicks + host.yaxis.majorTicks:
a.gridOn=True
a.tick1On=False
a.tick2On=False
a.label1On=False
a.label2On=False
I hope these workarounds are useful.
Thanks for reporting the problems and I;ll try to fix them soon.
Regards,
