[Matplotlib-users] xticks not lining up with data

[Ted To <rai...@th...>]

Hi,

I'm having a strange problem and I don't understand why this is
happening.  I am plotting the dataframe in: http://pastebin.com/C0Pt0iYd
but I'm getting too few tick marks.  My code for the plot is:

   fig, ax = plt.subplots()
   plt.rc('text', usetex=True)
   fig.autofmt_xdate()
   ax.plot(indices.carli,'b-',label=r'\textsf{Carli}')
   ax.plot(indices.geomean,'g-',label=r'\textsf{GeoMean}')
   ax.plot(indices.laspeyres,'c-',label=r'\textsf{Laspeyres}')
   ax.plot(indices.paasche,'m-',label=r'\textsf{Paasche}')
   ax.plot(indices.tornqvist,'y-',label=r'\textsf{T\"ornqvist}')
   plt.xlabel(r'\textsf{Month}')
   plt.ylabel(r'\textsf{Index value}')
   ax.set_xticklabels(indices.index)

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,
Ted
