To help us understand and resolve your issue please check that you have provided
the information below.

  • [1.5.1,3.5.1,OSX ] Matplotlib version, Python version and Platform (Windows, OSX, Linux ...)
  • [pip ] How did you install Matplotlib and Python (pip, anaconda, from source ...)

When using host_subplot output as axis objects to create new spines/axes, the tick rotation changes are not executed in the plot. I assume that several other tick operations are also not being executed.

I noted this when adding several new spines/axes following http://matplotlib.org/examples/axes_grid/demo_parasite_axes2.html.

Rotation is not done even in the most basic case below :

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from mpl_toolkits.axes_grid1 import host_subplot
import mpl_toolkits.axisartist as AA
import numpy as np

host = host_subplot(111,axes_class=AA.Axes)
plt.subplots_adjust(bottom=0.15)
host.plot(10,10)
host.set_xticks([10.2,10.4,10.6])
host.set_xticklabels(['A','B','C'],rotation=45)

In the figure above A,B,C ends up not rotated.

This is hopefully due to something in axisartist / axes_grid snarfing a kwarg. My intuition is that the fix will be easy but finding it might be tricky 😜 .

This is still (or again?) the case in 3.3.0.

To reproduce, run https://matplotlib.org/3.3.0/gallery/axisartist/demo_parasite_axes2.html and use plt.xticks(rotation=45) to attempt ticklabel rotation.

Spent some time digging into this without any solution, but thought it was worth writing down that the Text objects obtained from get_xticklabels do have the correct rotation.

This issue has been marked "inactive" because it has been 365 days since the last comment. If this issue is still present in recent Matplotlib releases, or the feature request is still wanted, please leave a comment and this label will be removed. If there are no updates in another 30 days, this issue will be automatically closed, but you are free to re-open or create a new issue if needed. We value issue reports, and this procedure is meant to help us resurface and prioritize issues that have not been addressed yet, not make them disappear. Thanks for your help!
