Hi JJ,
thanks a lot for your Answer. Now I have understand how this works and
created my one formatter:
class MyFormatter(object):
def __init__(self, fmt='$%f$'):
self.fmt = fmt
def __call__(self, direction, factor, values):
return [self.fmt % v for v in values]
Is there something like this already in Matplotlib? I looked into
axisartist but can not find anything similar.
Regards
Stefan
