Or a make a very simple custom Formatter: import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt from matplotlib.ticker import ScalarFormatter class PositiveFormatter(ScalarFormatter): def pprint_val(self, x): return ScalarFormatter.pprint_val(self, np.abs(x)) x = np.arange(0,20,0.1) y = 100 * np.sin(x) plt.plot(x, y) ax = plt.gca() ax.yaxis.set_major_formatter(PositiveFormatter()) plt.show() This is a much safer way to handle it than trying to modify tick labels directly.
