Matplotlib Axis Designations

Question

How to reduce tick count on axes using matplotlib (without using pyplot)?

self.figure = Figure((2.0, 2.0)) self.canvas = FigureCanvas(self.figure) self.canvas.setParent(self) self.axes = self.figure.add_subplot(111) self.figure.subplots_adjust(left=0.18) self.axes.fill(x, y, 'b') 

now....?

Answer 1

In pyplot it was xticks(...) , but I could not find it in matplotlib.

Turns out you should use set_xticks
