Hi Markus,
I didn't look at that code but I think the alternative you're
looking for is
ax.spines['right'].set_visible(False)
ax.spines['bottom'].set_visible(False)
where you use the appropriate locations you want changed for the
different subplots axes.
If you're going to have a lot of subplots, you can simplify the
logic by first setting all spines to being invisible, and then
using ax.is_first_col(), is_first_row() and the corresponding
is_last_* methods to set the appropriate spines back to visible.
Like this:
#show only the outside spines
for ax in all_axes:
for sp in ax.spines.values():
sp.set_visible(False)
if ax.is_first_row():
ax.spines['top'].set_visible(True)
if ax.is_last_row():
ax.spines['bottom'].set_visible(True)
if ax.is_first_col():
ax.spines['left'].set_visible(True)
if ax.is_last_col():
ax.spines['right'].set_visible(True)
best,
