[Matplotlib-users] subplots and xticklabels

[Thomas Caswell]

Sorry for the late reply.

It is a bit hard to be sure because your code has a lot on undefined
variables, but I suspect that you are positioning the Axes so that the
ticklabels are place outside of the figure space (and hence are not
rendered).

I suggest trying

fig.tight_layout() before showing or passing `tight_layout=True` when
creating your figure.
