Thanks for you answer Eric. I had to get some sleep before trying out things. I currently have the code below, but it does not remove the zero value tick. It removes the tick at 5 and 10 however.
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt from matplotlib.ticker import MultipleLocator fig = plt.figure() ax1 = fig.add_subplot(111) ax1.xaxis.set_major_locator(MultipleLocator(5)) xticks = ax1.xaxis.get_major_ticks() #xticks[0].label1.set_visible(False) #xticks[-1].label1.set_visible(False) ax1.set_xticks(ax1.get_xticks()[1:-1]) ax1.plot(list(range(11))) plt.show() On Sat, Feb 14, 2015 at 2:01 AM, Eric Firing <efir...@hawaii.edu> wrote: > On 2015/02/13 3:29 PM, Tommy Carstensen wrote: >> Is it possible to combine MultipleLocator and MaxNLocator?
