Try this. def get_indx(irow, icol): return irow*4+icol
ax = plt.subplot(gs[get_indx(0,3):get_indx(3,3)]) With 1d slicing, the axes will occupy the rectangle defined by the start and stop location. For example, gs[i:j] will occupy the rectangular area between gs[i] and gs[j-1]. Let me know if this does not work (this is only tested w/ the svn version and may not work with v1.0).
