Different keyword arguments are accepted, depending on the scale. See the respective class keyword arguments:

• matplotlib.scale.LinearScale

Notes

By default, Matplotlib supports the above mentioned scales. Additionally, custom scales may be registered using matplotlib.scale.register_scale. These scales can then also be used here.
