Re: [Matplotlib-users] Problem with tick locater

[Gökhan S. <gok...@gm...>]

OK,

This fixes the minor locations on y-axis

ax1.yaxis.set_minor_locator(ticker.LogLocator(subs=np.arange(2.0, 10.0)))

Independent of the data-range. It seems like ticker.LogLocator is trying to
adjust the minor locs internally.
