I think the issue here is to connect points in two different axes, which is possible but can be a bit difficult. In the svn version of matplotlib, there are some helper classes to ease this job a bit. I'm attaching the example. I think you can also run the example with 0.98.5.3. Just download ins

Yes, I can reproduce this with the current svn. I think what's happening is that, with larger number of grid, there is slight overlapping between each subplots (likely due to the floating point error). Note that subplot command deletes existing axes if they overlap with the new one. There would
