[Matplotlib-users] Choosing optimal figure width/height automatically

[Christoph G. <cw...@fa...>]

Hello,

I'm stuck trying to find a solution to the following problem.

I'd like to show an array using imshow preserving the 1:1 aspect ratio
of its pixels.  At the same time, I would like the axes to fit around
the image tightly.

Is there some way to, for example, choose a certain figure width, and
have the height chosen automatically to the optimal value?

Thanks,
Christoph
