Description
Based on description of tight ("If True, set view limits to data limits"), I would have expected MPL 1.5.1 behavior (see code and image below). Though perhaps there was a little margin added intentionally?
Edit: I see this first part was intended, as change #5583. See second issue below.
import matplotlib as mpl
plt.plot([1,2,3,4])
plt.autoscale(axis='both', tight=True)
plt.show()
Aside from this, MPL 1.x use to conveniently adjust view limits for log and symlog when tight autoscaling was not on, but MPL 2 does not seem to do this anymore.
This actually also looks like a result of #5583. I would argue the previous behavior was actually desirable in many instances. Is there a way to recover it?
import matplotlib as mpl
plt.plot([1,2,3,4])
ax = plt.gca()
ax.set_xscale('log')
ax.set_yscale('log')
plt.show()
