[Matplotlib-users] Exclude invisible artists from a relim() and autoscale_view()?

[Åke K. <ake...@gm...>]

I am using matplotlib in a wxpython application where series are added
dynamically to subplots in a figure. I added the very handy option to toggle
series' visibility (by calling set_visible(False). The catch is however that
the invisible series are included in the rescaling of the artists (Line2D
all of them). Is there any way to fix that? The behavior I'm after is for
rescaling to be based on visible artists only.

The way I am doing the rescaling currently is simply by calling these two
methods from the event handler:

event.inaxes.relim()
event.inaxes.autoscale_view(tight=None, scalex=False, scaley=True)
