set_params(base=None, offset=None)

Do nothing, and raise a warning. Any locator class not supporting the set_params() function will call this.

Return the values of the located ticks given vmin and vmax.

Note

To get tick locations with the vmin and vmax values defined automatically for the associated axis simply call the Locator instance:
