Hi all,
I am trying to change the labels of minor ticks, but leave the labels of the
major ticks unchanged. To do this, I use the following function:
ax = plt.subplot(111)
ax.set_xticks([1,3,5])
ax.set_xticks([2,4], minor=True)
ax.set_xticklabels(["a", "b"], minor=True)
However, in result of the function both minor and major tick labels are
changes. I checked the source code of XAxis.set_ticklabels and it contains
following lines:
axis.py: lines 1335-1342
if minor:
self.set_minor_formatter(mticker.FixedFormatter(ticklabels))
ticks = self.get_minor_ticks()
else:
self.set_major_formatter( mticker.FixedFormatter(ticklabels) )
ticks = self.get_major_ticks()
self.set_major_formatter( mticker.FixedFormatter(ticklabels) )
Note that the last lines sets the major tick formatter regardless of the
"minor" argument. Is it intentional behaviour?
Yours,
Bartosz
