Each tick is a Line2D consisting of a single marker, so it is possible to change the marker after the tick has been created: ax = plt.subplot(1,1,1) ticks = ax.xaxis.get_majorticklines() mytick = ticks[3] mytick.set_marker(2) plt.draw() This will flip the first tick on the top border (the one for 0.2). left, right, up, down are 0, 1, 2, 3.
