Hi all, I have noticed a funny behaviour when using twinx to do two plots on the same axes: the xticklabels are printed twice, once for each axes. This shows up as slightly thicker labels than for a single axes. It is particularly visible for ps or pdf output, but can be seen also in an interactive session. I can also see this in the figure shown for the two_scales.py example (http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/_images/two_scales.png), where the xticklabels are thicker than the yticklabels (though it is not so apparent due to different colours. I therefore assume it is not just my installation. (Adding for tl in ax2.get_xticklabels(): tl.set_fontsize(16) just before the last plt.show() in two_scales.py makes it even more visible) Does anyone know of a reasonable work-around? Surely it is not the intended behaviour? Thanks for any help, Christoffer Åberg
I'd also be interested in a workaround. I tried to remove the tick labels from the second axe, but it also removed the labels from the first axe.

David, This seems to work for me: (here ax2 is the second axis) The only work around I can see is to add for tl in ax2.get_xticklabels(): tl.set_visible(False) To prevent the ticklines being drawn twice I guess we should also do for tline in ax2.get_xticklines(): tline.set_visible(False) HTH, George. 2009年2月27日 David Huard <dav...@gm...>: > I'd also be interested in a workaround.

Hi Erick, Is there any particular reason to introduce _xaxison and _yaxison, instead of using set_visible(False) on the xaxis and yaxis? Just wondering.. -JJ On Sat, Feb 28, 2009 at 1:52 PM, Eric Firing <ef...@ha...> wrote: > Christoffer Aberg wrote: >> Hi all, >> >> I have noticed a funny behaviour when using twinx to do two plots on the >> same axes: the xticklabels are printed twice, once for each axes.

Good catch--I just didn't think of it. That is a much better solution. I'll do it shortly. Thank you.
