matplotlib-users Mailing List for matplotlib

Dear Jody,
No, I tried it also...
 ax.axis["left"].xticks() results in error: 'AxisArtist' object has no
attribute 'xticks'
 ax.xticks() results in error: 'Floating AxesHostAxesSubplot' object has no
attribute 'xticks'
 plt.xticks() or just xticks() does not produce any change. 
Any idea?
http://www.ce.mu.edu.tr/sharedoc/python-matplotlib-doc-.0.1/html/mpl_toolkits/axes_grid/users/axisartist.html#gridhelper 
gives some explanation with the The GridHelperRectlinear, but I cannot make
it work
Thanks,
Patricia

Does "xticks" not do what you want? Maybe I am misundertsanding because you are trying to do something with a raw Artist...

Hi,
I am working on a plot that requires AxisArtist and I cannot set the tick
separation (or nbins) that I want to avoid overlapping of ticklabels. I read 
http://www.ce.mu.edu.tr/sharedoc/python-matplotlib-doc-1.0.1/html/mpl_toolkits/axes_grid/users/axisartist.html#gridhelper, 
where they suggest to use the classical set_ticks, but it doesn't work.
 ax.xaxis.set_ticks() does not makes any difference, the ticks are same as
originally, and
 ax.axis["left"].set_ticks() results in an error: 'AxisArtist' object has
no attribute 'set_ticks' 
Can somebody help me?
Thanks in advance,
Patricia
