[matplotlib-devel] amplitude of peaks not shown correctly

Hello,

The amplitude of sharp peaks is not shown correctly when several plots
are stitched together and the x scale becomes very large.  I have
noticed this problem with the pdf and png backends in the attached
script.

Best regards,
Miguel

This is a known bug which is fixed in svn.  You need to set

path.simplify : False

in your matplotlibrc http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/users/customizing.html
