The following code demonstrates the issue\r\n\r\n```\r\nimport matplotlib.pyplot as plt\r\nplt.rcParams['figure.autolayout'] = True\r\n\r\nfig = plt.figure()\r\nax1 = fig.add_subplot(121, aspect='equal')\r\nax2 = fig.add_subplot(122, aspect='equal')\r\nfig.canvas.mpl_connect('button_press_event', lambda event: event.canvas.draw())\r\nfig.canvas.set_window_title('Click to redraw canvas')\r\nplt.show()\r\n```\r\n\r\nThe issue doesn't appear to occur with the default figure size, but if you resize the window horizontally the subplots drift around with each redraw until eventually settling on a position. \r\n\r\nPlatform: Windows 7\r\nmatplotlib: 1.5.3\r\npython: 2.7.12","author":{"url":"https://github.com/ndeadly","@type":"Person","name":"ndeadly"},"datePublished":"2016-12-20T14:15:58.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":6},"url":"https://github.com/7648/matplotlib/issues/7648"}
