[Matplotlib-users] minorLocator

[Yves R. <yve...@ep...>]

Hi all,

How is it possible to display by default the minor ticks with an 
interval 5 times
smaller than the major ticks.

I can do that for a known range of data : for example :

ax = pt.gca()
ax.xaxis.set_major_locator(MultipleLocator(10))
ax.xaxis.set_minor_locator(MultipleLocator(10/5.))


but I would like to have the major still set by default, i.e. :
ax.xaxis.set_major_locator(AutoLocator())

and now the minor automatically set to 1/5. of the value used for the major.

How can I do that ?


Thanks for your help,

yves
