Hi,
Since matplotlib is about to hit 0.99, I am bringing up an old discussion
about the 'callback' events 'xlim_changed' and 'ylim_changed' which are only
available through the
callbacks.connect('xlim_changed',dostuff)
API. Is there now a way to do this through the 'standard' mpl_connect() API?
If not, would it be easy to implement this?
Thanks,
Tom
