I want to change the background color of my x axis and y axis.

I tried ax.set_axis_bgcolor('k')

But I get an error AttributeError: 'AxesSubplot' object has no attribute 'set_axis_bgcolor'

Upon further internet search I found out that 'set_axis_bgcolor()' has been depreciated. A GitHub thread on this topic suggests using 'set_facecolor()', which does not address ticks background color.

How can I change x or y ticks background color?

you want to change the colours of the ticks themselves? Or do you want to change the colour of the axis spine? – tmdavison Aug 27 '20 at 18:24
