set_colorbar sets colorbar attribute. So I guess you can just check if Mappable.colorbar is None or not. Mappable.colorbar, when set, should be a tuple whose first item is an image for colorbar and the second item is an colorbar axes. Regards, -JJ On Tue, Feb 16, 2010 at 5:26 AM, Nico Schlömer

If what you want is to have more padding for the major tick labels, I recommend you to use rcParams['xtick.major.pad'] = 20 If you don't like to change the global setting, you may set the ticklabel padding for an specific axis. Try for tck in ax.xaxis.get_major_ticks(): tck.set_pad(20)
