[Matplotlib-users] Autoscaling after adding patches (and annotations)

[Neal Becker]

Yes, that doesn't work.  It just autoscales to a tiny portion of the data.

In my example, I generate the xy coordinates for the centers of hexagons
that tile a square area.  The code adds the hexagons using add_artist.
Also, the centers of the hexagons are annotated.  Neither of these
operations causes the axes to scale correctly.  If I add a step to plot the
centers of the hexagons, using e.g., scatter, then the axes are scaled
correctly.
For now, I'm just adding the scatter plot with alpha=0 to get the scaling
correct.
But I still don't know a less klugey way to do it.
