Re: [Matplotlib-users] semilogy question

A simple solution would be:

numbers, text = yticks()
mytext = ['%.2f' % n for n in numbers]
yticks(numbers, mytext)

If you need fancier formatting look at Ticker and Formatter API

For sure there's something about this in the examples as well.

Best! Bernhard
