I of course like the automated way of doing things, but subplots_adjust probably still has a place in a lot of situations? I wonder if trimming it and maybe moving after the automated methods is preferable to wholesale removal? |

I've taken the larger step of rewriting multiple sources that adjust subplot layouting. Generally, FAQ entries should be short and link to further resources if possible. We don't want to duplicate content in the FAQ. |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I think we might as well start swapping these...

- Repurpose the example "Auto Subplots Adjust" to "Programmatically controlling subplot adjustment". The effect of the example has been largely superseeded by tight layout and constrained layout. It's still useful as an example of using advanced concepts in Matplotlib such as Bboxes, transforms, events. - Remove "How-to: Move the edge of an axes to make room for tick labels" and move it's content to "Programmatically controlling subplot adjustment" - Remove "How-to: Automatically make room for tick labels" This is basically a documentation of `subplots_adjust()`. It's sufficient to link there. - Write a single new section "How to: "Make room for tick labels" that only links to manual adjustment / tight layout / constrained layout / "Programmatically controlling subplot adjustment"

Manual adjusting the subplot parameters should be the exceptionnowadays. We don't need to discuss this in the FAQ. Users should
primarily use tight_layout or constrained_layout, which is covered
in the following section.
