You could write your own formatter, don't be scared. The following might be a good starting point: http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/api/ticker_api.html#matplotlib.ticker.FuncFormatter You just need to write a function inserting the comma into the number's string repr() given a plain Python number. If I'm not mistaken this feature has never been requested so far, AFAICT. Just got Goekhan's message, try a combination of both, might be worth. hthy, Friedrich ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download new Adobe(R) Flash(R) Builder(TM) 4 The new Adobe(R) Flex(R) 4 and Flash(R) Builder(TM) 4 (formerly Flex(R) Builder(TM)) enable the development of rich applications that run across multiple browsers and platforms.
