I am a real beginner in python and try to connect a qslider to a matplotlibwidget. That means if I change the value of the slider the graph should change. It seems that the value changes correctly, while the graph stays the same. Can anyone tell me how to connect the change of the slider with the graph? Here is my algorithm so far:

ylabel (''): Y-axis label
xlim (None): X-axis limits ([min, max])
