[matplotlib-devel] update x axis of a subplot according to the y axis of another one in python/matplotlib

[Alessandro P. B. <ale...@he...>]

I would like to plot an orthogonal projection (like this one 
http://i.stack.imgur.com/DnNds.jpg) using matplotlib possibly including 
also the 3D subplot. All the pictures should share common axes.

|fig=  plt.figure()
ax=  fig.add_subplot(221,  title="XZ")
bx=  fig.add_subplot(222,  title="YZ",  sharey=ax)
cx=  fig.add_subplot(223,  title="XY",  sharex=ax,  sharey=[something like bx.Xaxis])
dx=  fig.add_subplot(224,  title="XYZ",  projection="3d",  sharex=ax,  sharey=bx,  sharez=[something like bx.Yaxis]|

The problem is that I have to "link" on X axis of a plot with the Y one 
of another and
Is there a way to accomplish this?

Thanks

Alessandro
