Ah, this seems to be the issue that my figsize was growing all the time so it went over the maximum limits.
I thought this is valid: DefaultSize = F.get_size_inches() print str(DefaultSize) blah F.set_size_inches(DefaultSize) See http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/api/figure_api.html <quote> set_size_inches(*args, **kwargs) set_size_inches(w,h, forward=False) Set the figure size in inches Usage: fig.set_size_inches(w,h) # OR fig.set_size_inches((w,h) ) optional kwarg forward=True will cause the canvas size to be automatically updated; eg you can resize the figure window from the shell ACCEPTS: a w,h tuple with w,h in inches </quote> Nope, it does not work. The print call gives me: [ 8. 6.]. So, this is not a tuple? Or python-2.7 issue how is it printed ... I fear? ;-) Anyway, doing F.set_size_inches(11.2, 15) works for me.
