    <p>I'm trying to plot a figure without tickmarks or numbers on either of the axes (I use axes in the traditional sense, not the matplotlib nomenclature!). An issue I have come across is where matplotlib adjusts the x(y)ticklabels by subtracting a value N, then adds N at the end of the axis.</p> <p>This may be vague, but the following simplified example highlights the issue, with '6.18' being the offending value of N:</p> <pre><code>import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import random prefix = 6.18 rx = [prefix+(0.001*random.random()) for i in arange(100)] ry = [prefix+(0.001*random.random()) for i in arange(100)] plt.plot(rx,ry,'ko') frame1 = plt.gca() for xlabel_i in frame1.axes.get_xticklabels(): xlabel_i.set_visible(False) xlabel_i.set_fontsize(0.0) for xlabel_i in frame1.axes.get_yticklabels(): xlabel_i.set_fontsize(0.0) xlabel_i.set_visible(False) for tick in frame1.axes.get_xticklines(): tick.set_visible(False) for tick in frame1.axes.get_yticklines(): tick.set_visible(False) plt.show() </code></pre> <p>The three things I would like to know are:</p> <ol> <li><p>How to turn off this behaviour in the first place (although in most cases it is useful, it is not always!) I have looked through <code>matplotlib.axis.XAxis</code> and cannot find anything appropriate</p></li> <li><p>How can I make N disappear (i.e. <code>X.set_visible(False)</code>)</p></li> <li><p>Is there a better way to do the above anyway? My final plot would be 4x4 subplots in a figure, if that is relevant.</p></li> </ol>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
