Bug in tight_layout #11737
Description
I just found a critical bug in tight_layout in master (unless something is wrong with my installation...).
fig, ax=plt.subplots() fig.set_tight_layout(True) plt.show()
The axes get into a black hole in the middle of the figure if I try to zoom.
master
python 3.5, 3.6
windows 10

It seems that the new tests for correct subplotparams in tight_layoutfor some reason don't work in the use case above. I am looking into it.

Some more information. The left, right etc values in the tight_layout module became incorrect. Those values get send to Subplotparams.update where they are silently changed to the old values. The raise ValueError is not working, probably due to a try somewhere.
So zooming seems to work without the new tests in the tight_layout module but it actually doesn't because the old suplotparameters are just used once again.

#11739 might fix the bug.
