matplotlib.axis.XAxis.set_data_interval

XAxis.set_data_interval(self, vmin, vmax, ignore=False)

Set the axis data limits. This method is for internal use.

If ignore is False (the default), this method will never reduce the preexisting data limits, only expand them if vmin or vmax are not within them. Moreover, the order of vmin and vmax does not matter; the orientation of the axis will not change.

If ignore is True, the data limits will be set exactly to (vmin, vmax) in that order.
