You can specify the parameter markevery=n to the plot to just plot every n-th marker. For example: import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import numpy as np N = 10000 x = np.linspace(-10.0,10.0,N) plt.plot(x,np.sin(x),"-s",markevery=N/50) plt.show() Regards, João Luís ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?
