Thread: [Matplotlib-users] adjusting subplot sizes

Hi,

I'd like to create subplots where one subplot is bigger than the other, say
subplot(211) should have two time the size in y than subplot(212).
Is there a way to do this?

TIA
Christian

The best way to do this is with "axes", not "subplot"

  from pylab import axes, show
  ax1 = axes([0.1, 0.45, 0.8, 0.5])
  ax2 = axes([0.1, 0.1, 0.8, 0.25])
  show()
