Hexbin with log scale takes extent range as logarithm of the data along the log axis #6479
Description
X=np.arange(1.,100.,0.1)
Y=1.1**X
plt.figure()
plt.hexbin(X,Y,yscale='log',mincnt=1,extent=[1,50,10,100])
#
plt.figure()
plt.hexbin(X,Y,yscale='log',mincnt=1,extent=[1,50,1,2])
The first plot shows an y range from 1010 .. 10100 with an empty plot. The second one shows the
range in 10..100 along the y axis. Is this the intended behavior of the extent keyword arg?
