I am plotting with seaborn a series of boxplots with sns.boxplot(full_array) where full_array contains 200 arrays. Therefore, I have 200 boxplots and ticks on the x-axis from 0 to 200. The xticks are too close to each other and I would like to show only some of them, for instance, a labeled xtick every 20, or so. I tried several solutions as those mentioned here but they did not work. Every time I sample the xticks, I get wrong labels for the ticks, as they get numbered from 0 to N, with unit spacing. For instance, with the line ax.xaxis.set_major_locator(ticker.MultipleLocator(20)) I get a labelled xtick every 20 but the labels are 1, 2, 3, 4 instead of 20, 40, 60, 80... Continue reading...
