matplotlib:设置主刻度和次刻度会强制相同的x和y刻度

这个问题与之前提出的问题相关" matplotlib: Change grid interval and specify tick labels"但现在我想改变x和y轴的比例。当我设置x和y轴的范围,然后指定主刻度线和次刻度线的间隔时,它会强制x和y轴相同。

这是我的代码。

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np

fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(111)

for key, value in sorted(data.items()):
    x = value[0][2]
    y = value[0][3]
    count = value[0][4]

    ax.annotate(count, xy = (x, y), size = 3)

plt.suptitle('Number of counts', fontsize = 12)

ax.set_xlabel('x')
ax.set_ylabel('y')
ax.set_aspect('equal')

# I want max x axis to be 500
ax.set_xlim(0, 501)
# I want max y axis to be 300
ax.set_ylim(0, 301)

# I want major ticks to be every 20
major_ticks = np.arange(0, 501, 20)

# I want minor ticks to be every 5
minor_ticks = np.arange(0, 501, 5)
# If I do minor_ticks = np.arange(0, 301, 5), I will not get minor ticks for the entire plot

# Specify tick label size
ax.tick_params(axis = 'both', which = 'major', labelsize = 4)
ax.tick_params(axis = 'both', which = 'minor', labelsize = 0)
# Suppress minor tick labels

ax.set_xticks(major_ticks)
ax.set_xticks(minor_ticks, minor = True)
ax.set_yticks(major_ticks)
ax.set_yticks(minor_ticks, minor = True)

# Set both ticks to be outside
ax.tick_params(which = 'both', direction = 'out')

# Specify different settings for major and minor grids
ax.grid(which = 'minor', alpha = 0.3)
ax.grid(which = 'major', alpha = 0.7)

filename = 'C:\Users\Owl\Desktop\Plot.png'
plt.savefig(filename, dpi = 150)
plt.close()

这就是我得到的。

我怎样才能获得x和y轴的不同范围,并且仍然有像这样的主要和次要刻度?我可能会遗漏一些非常简单的东西,但如果有人能说出来的话,我非常感谢!!

我更新了我的代码如下,现在我得到了我想要的!谢谢!

那是因为你将x和y刻度设置为相同的东西。如果你想要不同的尺码,那么你也需要不同的刻度。您不能将两组刻度设置为相同的major_ticks位置。制作一个x轴的刻度位置列表和一个单独的y轴刻度位置列表,然后将每个轴的刻度设置为相应的列表。
