In `minorticks_on`, the input passed to SymmetricalLogLocator is base and subs, but SymmetricalLogLocator is expecting transform and subs. Calling self._transform.base, when self._transform is a base (a float) causes exception,\n\n\u003e ...\n\u003e   File \"C:\\Python27_numpy\\lib\\site-packages\\matplotlib\\axis.py\", line 900, in iter_ticks\n\u003e     minorLocs = self.minor.locator()\n\u003e   File \"C:\\Python27_numpy\\lib\\site-packages\\matplotlib\\ticker.py\", line 1662, in **call**\n\u003e     return self.tick_values(vmin, vmax)\n\u003e   File \"C:\\Python27_numpy\\lib\\site-packages\\matplotlib\\ticker.py\", line 1665, in tick_values\n\u003e     b = self._transform.base\n\u003e AttributeError: 'float' object has no attribute 'base'\n\nMinimum code to reproduce,\n\n```\nimport matplotlib.pyplot as plt\n\nplt.plot([1,2,3,4])\n\nax = plt.gca()\nax.set_xscale('symlog')\nax.set_yscale('symlog')\nax.minorticks_on()\n\nplt.show()\n```\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/LevN0","@type":"Person","name":"LevN0"},"datePublished":"2016-08-23T19:09:30.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":5},"url":"https://github.com/6967/matplotlib/issues/6967"}
