Re: [Matplotlib-users] logarithmic plotting and the grid
I think he wants to turn the grid on for both major and minor ticks. I'm interested in that also. Is there a way to do that?

Whoop, the evil' mathwork even doesn't allow me to refer to a picture on the site. ok, here's the effect I need (semilogy plotting with more detailed grid) http://i47.tinypic.com/95zihi.gif Sorry for any inconvenience! -- SOLARIS 10 is the OS for Data Centers - provides features such as DTrace, Predictive Self Healing and Award Winning ZFS.
