I have used add_axes() to do this in the past. E.g., import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
fig = plt.figure() leftmarg = 0.125 # change these numbers to taste botmmarg = 0.125 width = 0.825 height = 0.825 frac = 2./3. ax0 = fig.add_axes([leftmarg, botmmarg, width, frac*height]) ax1 = fig.add_axes([leftmarg, botmmarg+frac*height, width, (1-frac) *height]) ax1.xaxis.set_ticklabels([]) plt.show() Sorry it is in object-oriented style instead of pylab style...
