Hi @radiantone , thanks for your patience and apologies for the delay, I've not had bandwidth for textacy dev work for a few months.

I've always had trouble debugging this sort of issue — matplotlib can be finicky! Unfortunately, I'm unable to reproduce it in my setup using either matplotlib 2.2 or 3.0:

Could you add constrained_layout=True to this line where the plot's figure and axes are being initialized, and let me know if that fixes it?

Hi @radiantone , you've probably moved on from this, but just in case: today I merged in a PR (#248) that included changes to help address this, and there's a brand new v0.8.0 release with them included. I'm going to close this issue out, but please reopen if you're still stuck and unable to make it work.
