Re: [Matplotlib-users] Clipping the bottom labels

[Ryan K. <rya...@gm...>]

I have a similar problem because I use bigfonts.  If you are going to
make a lot of these plots, you can change the default for left,
bottom, height, and width in your matplotlibrc file.  Look for the
lines:

figure.subplot.left  : 0.15 #0.125  # the left side of the subplots of
the figure
figure.subplot.right : 0.925    # the right side of the subplots of the fig=
ure
figure.subplot.bottom : 0.125   # the bottom of the subplots of the figure
figure.subplot.top : 0.925      # the top of the subplots of the figure

matplotlib looks for this rc file first in the working directory and
then in your home directory (possibly looking in other places along
the way).  So, you could put a copy of matplotlibrc in the directory
where you are making a lot of these plots if you don't want to change
the bottom setting for all your plots.
