prevent_overlapping_x_labels(canvas, axes_number=0)

Given a canvas that contains a figure that contains at least one axes instance, checks the x-axis tick labels to make sure they don't overlap. If they do, the number of ticks is reduced until there is no overlap.

Parameters:

canvas (matplotlib canvas object) - the canvas that contains the figure/axes objects
axes_number (int) - the index of the axes on the figure to examine. Default is 0, which is the first set of axis added to the figure.
