Re: [Matplotlib-users] set yticklabels fonts size without setting the yticklabels

[Paul H. <pmh...@gm...>]

I always taylor a matplotlibrc file for a given project, but you can
modify the rc parameters on the fly:
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/users/customizing.html#dynamic-rc-settings

You need to set themodified rc parameters at the top of your script.
Hope that helps.
