Feature request: use with subplots

[arthurmloureiro]

autosize() is simply magical! But I am struggling to get it working with plt.subplots in matplotlib.

My script goes like:

fig, axis = plt.subplots(figsize=(6,6), ncols=4, nrows=4)
for i in range(0, 4):
            for j in range(0, 4):
            # a class that makes plots in certain axis:
           gec.PlotClsHDP(i, j, ax=axis[i,j], **kwargs)
autosize(fig)
plt.show()

but the result is the following:

Hi Arthur, thanks for your note. Glad you're finding it's useful!

This is a good point about it not working well with subplots. I guess maybe we should rescale the sizes depending on the number/size of the subplots. But there's also the risk that making the fonts smaller would just put us back in the position where they're illegible.

What do you think?
