Only try to set the axis scales if they have been changed. closes matplotlib#6276 The `set_yscale` and `set_xscale` Axes methods call out to `Axis_set_scale` which resets the default locator/formatters (which makes sense when flipping between log/linear). Putting the cut-out in `figureoption` is the less disruptive change, even if the case could be made that the no-op short-circuit should be done in Axis or Axes.

I think this might be relevant. plt.plot(1, 10000, 2, 20000, 'ro')
ax = plt.gca()
ax.yaxis.set_major_formatter(mpl.ticker.ScalarFormatter(useMathText=True))
ax.ticklabel_format(scilimits=(-3, 3)) # put after 'set_major_formatter', scilimits works
plt.show()works fine. But if plot(1, 10000, 2, 20000, 'ro')
ax = gca()
ax.ticklabel_format(scilimits=(-3, 3)) #put before 'set_major_formatter', scilimits doesn't work.
ax.yaxis.set_major_formatter(mpl.ticker.ScalarFormatter(useMathText=True))
plt.show() |

Version: 1.5.1, Windows 7, using QT5 backend. Not tested on linux yet. After setting the format of an axis to use use scientific notation,
ticklabel_format(style='sci', axis='y', scilimits=(0,0))changing the limits of the plot using the green checkbox widget in the NavigationToolbar will remove the scientific notation formatting that was just set. This would be a huge convenience for users who use scientific notation and want to work with plots interactively. Example:
