My memory failed me. I not only proposed, but submitted the necessary patches which were accepted. However, this only works for datetime objects: >>> import datetime >>> datetime.datetime.now().strftime("%H:%M:%S.%f") '08:58:57.854562' It's not supported by time.strftime: >>> import time >>> time.time() 1373637581.478104 >>> time.strftime("%H:%M:%S.%f", time.localtime()) '09:00:10.%f' which I suspect is what matplotlib uses if it converts datetime objects to floats internally.
