[Matplotlib-users] make autoscale_view even less tight?

[C M <cmp...@gm...>]

I'm using autoscale_view for the y axis, but find with a marker size >
about 10, it will autoscale the graphs such that some markers are
bisected by the edges of the frame.  I already have it set to:

    self.subplot.autoscale_view(tight=False, scalex=False, scaley=True)

so I'd basically like "tight" here to be "even less tight".  For
example, for a graph of time in minutes along the y axis, I'd like the
bottom of the graph to actually be a bit below zero to catch events
that are 0.5 min, etc., without them being half-buried under the edge
of the graph.

Can autoscale_view be altered a bit to allow for a more generous view?

Thanks,
Che
