[Matplotlib-users] Matplotlib gray area around plot

[blueone <rar...@gm...>]

Hi,

I am working on my first project involving Matplotlib. I haven't used it
much, but i'm already impressed by it!
The project i am working on uses Matplotlib embedded in wxPython. I have
already embedded it successfully, but there is one thing that i would still
like to change and that is the gray area around the plot. The background of
the plot is white and around it there's this thick gray rectangle. Is there
a way of making it smaller?

Thanks in advance!

You can adjust the margins using subplots_adjust():
