Adjusting a physical size of the axes is a bit tricky in matplotlib,
as the axes has an fixed position in normalized figure coordinate.
But, I guess setting the axes aspect ratio in physical size is doable
relatively easily, at least if your x,y axis are in linear scales. For
example, if you want
I would like to ensure that the axes on a plot I'm making are square
in the sense of how the axes appear in the figure. I tried using
ax.set_aspect(1) , but that squares the axes in data coordinates,
rather than in figure coordinates. So aside from generating a figure
that is always square (which
