[wxPython-users] Plot, plotting outside y-range ?

I noticed this behavior after I sent my response, and by then I could
not find my "Unsend email" button :-)

The need for scrollbars is apparently calculated in
_adjustScrollbars() method of PlotCanvas.  It's the last thing called
in _Draw().  But just at first glance, I cannot say that I know how to
override it cleanly.
I have made this hack to my local plot.py in line 1103:
        #self._adjustScrollbars()
By commenting out that call, now the scrollbars are gone for good. But
it hardly seems like a good solution...

I agree. I found this new feature a bit frustrating to disable when it
first appeared a while ago. In my case, SetShowScrollbars works
because my plots are less dynamic than yours.

Perhaps this should be a request for wxpython-dev? Someone may help us
both with this.
