Description
Consider an axis with equal aspect ratio
from matplotlib import pyplot as pltfig = plt.figure()ax1 = fig.add_subplot(111, aspect='equal')ax1.grid()plt.show()
Adding a parasitic axis withtwinx() causes the plot to completely ignoreaspect='equal'
from matplotlib import pyplot as pltfig = plt.figure()ax1 = fig.add_subplot(111, aspect='equal')ax1.grid()ax2 = ax1.twinx()plt.show()
Creating the primary axis with the keyword argumentadjustable='box-forced' causes it to obeyaspect='equal' but the parasitic axis does not.
from matplotlib import pyplot as pltfig = plt.figure()ax1 = fig.add_subplot(111, adjustable='box-forced', aspect='equal')ax1.grid()ax2 = ax1.twinx()plt.show()
Interestingly, everything works if the primary axis is created withhost_subplot (noteadjustable='box-forced' is still required). However, it seems to be prone to a similar issue to#7648 iffigure.autolayout is set
import matplotlib.pyplot as pltfrom mpl_toolkits.axes_grid1 import host_subplotfig = plt.figure()ax1 = host_subplot(111, adjustable='box-forced', aspect='equal')ax1.grid()ax2 = ax1.twinx()plt.show()
