Is there a way to force the x and y axes to have the same scale in bokeh? This would be equivalent to calling axis(‘equal’) in matplotlib.

Locking aspect ratio to 1
Alex,
We want to have more fleshed out support for automating this later, but for the time being, the best you can probably do is to make sure to set plot_width and plot_height to be the same, then provide a border value large enough to accommodate all you axes, titles, etc.
from bokeh.plotting import *
output_file('/tmp/foo.html')
figure(border_fill="#aa8888", plot_width=500, plot_height=500, border=100, title="My Plot")
line([1,2], [3,4])
show()
