matplotlib.axes.Axes.autoscale#
- Axes.autoscale(enable=True, axis='both', tight=None)[source]#
Autoscale the axis view to the data (toggle).
Convenience method for simple axis view autoscaling. This:
Turns autoscaling on or off (
set_autoscalex_on/set_autoscaley_on).Ensures that view limits will get updated when needed. - As view limits are lazy-updated, this technically marks the view limits as stale.
- Parameters:
- enablebool or None, default: True
True turns autoscaling on, False turns it off. None leaves the autoscaling state unchanged.
- axis{'both', 'x', 'y'}, default: 'both'
The axis on which to operate. (For 3D Axes, axis can also be set to 'z', and 'both' refers to all three Axes.)
- tightbool or None, default: None
If True, first set the margins to zero. Then, this argument is forwarded to
autoscale_view(regardless of its value); see the description of its behavior there.
