Re: [Matplotlib-users] bug in zorder example

[Thomas C. <tca...@gm...>]

zorder can be negative, if you want to ensure that all of your lines are
always below all of the standard axis components simple decrease  the
zorder of the elements you want behind rather than increasing the zorder of
the elements you want in front.

@ben look at the top left of
http://matplotlib.org/mpl_examples/pylab_examples/zorder_demo_01.hires.png
and compare where it looks like the red and green lines are clipped.
