Thread: [matplotlib-devel] axes bug?

Hi All,
I get what I consider to be a bug. (I think) the following code should 
produce a 10 row, 6 column figure with identical plots. However, this 
code (with current CVS matplotlib), displays a 10 row, 6 column figure 
with plots of apparently varying x and y limits...
Even adding "set(gca(),'xlim',(1,3)); set(gca(),'ylim',(4,6))" does not 
help.
Am I confused, or is this a bug?
Cheers!
Andrew
#!/usr/bin/env python
from matplotlib.matlab import *
n_rows = 10
n_cols = 6
row_height = 1.0/n_rows
col_width = 1.0/n_cols
figure()
for row in range(n_rows):
 for col in range(n_cols):
 axes([ col*col_width, row*row_height,
 (col+1)*col_width, (row+1)*row_height ])
 plot([1,2,3],[4,5,6])
show()

Arrg!
OK, reading the docstring for axes, I find out that the 3rd and 4th 
argument are width and height, (not right and top). This all works 
fine. I was confused...
Cheers!
Andrew
