[matplotlib-devel] hist() bug in log-scale with "stepfilled"

[Olle E. <ol...@fy...>]

Hi,

Combining "stepfilled" with log scale sometimes gives inappropriate plots:

a=[4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,5,5,5,5,5,5]
hist(a, range=(0,10), bins=10, histtype="stepfilled", log=True)

The problem is not restricted to the case here with more bins than unique 
elements, but sometimes reducing the bin number makes the issue go away.

Cheers,
Olle
