Changes beyond 0.99.x
=====================
+* There are three new Axes methods with corresponding pyplot
+ functions to facilitate autoscaling, tick location, and tick
+ label formatting:
+
+ + :meth:`matplotlib.axes.Axes.margins` sets margins used to
+ autoscale the :attr:`matplotlib.axes.Axes.viewLim` based on
+ the :attr:`matplotlib.axes.Axes.dataLim`.
+
+ + :meth:`matplotlib.axes.Axes.locator_params` allows one to
+ adjust axes locator parameters such as *nbins*.
+
+ + :meth:`matplotlib.axes.Axes.ticklabel_format` is a convenience
+ method for controlling the :class:`matplotlib.ticker.ScalarFormatter`
+ that is used by default with linear axes.
+
* The :meth:`matplotlib.axes.Axes.bar` method accepts a *error_kw*
kwarg; it is a dictionary of kwargs to be passed to the
errorbar function.
