Hanging xaxis whe trying to supply custom AxisItem to PlotWidget in PyQt4

[Kenneth Nielsen]

Hallo pyqtgraph developers and thanks for an awesome package

I want to embed a pyqtgraph Qt Widget into my own Qt program and I want to use a custom xaxis (with time formatting, but that is besides the point). When I try to do it by supplying the axisItem argument to PlotWidget I do get the new axis in place, but I also still have the old x-axis hanging at the top left of the widget. The following is the smallest code example that I can use to reproduce the proble

import sys

import numpy as np
from pyqtgraph import PlotWidget, AxisItem
from PyQt4 import QtGui, QtCore


class TimeAxisItem(AxisItem):
    """Only included to show that the point is to subclass"""


class Example(QtGui.QWidget):
    def __init__(self):
        super(Example, self).__init__()        
        self.setGeometry(300, 300, 1000, 1000)
        self.plot = PlotWidget(self, axisItems={'bottom': TimeAxisItem(orientation='bottom')})
        self.plot.resize(900, 900)
        self.curve = self.plot.plot(np.linspace(0, 10, 100), np.random.random(100))
        self.show()


if __name__ == '__main__':
    app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)
    ex = Example()
    sys.exit(app.exec_())

Which produces the Window shown in the attached image.

Am I doing it wrong? I should say, that I can produce the correct result (dateformatting of xaxis without the hanging axis) by simply getting the existing xaxis and monkey patching tickStrings, but I would rather not have to do that.

Sorry about that.

I did search for it (which I always do before reporting bugs), but did not find that stackoverflow thread.

Thanks for the reply.
