Hi Krishna,
I'm not sure about using FixedLocator if you want to zoom ...
What about the following approach:
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
ax = plt.subplot(111, autoscale_on=False, xlim=(10, 1000), ylim=(10, 1000))
ax.set_xscale('log')
ax.set_yscale('log')
ax.grid(which='major', linestyle='-', color='blue')
ax.grid(which='minor', linestyle='--', color='red')
plt.show()
Kind regards,
Matthias
