[Matplotlib-users] Create a figure window without navigation toolbar

[Jianbao T. <jia...@gm...>]

Hi,

I know one can make a figure window without toolbar by doing
mpl.rcParams['toolbar'] = 'None'

However, this approach is kind of annoying if one just wants to remove the
toolbar for one figure window and to keep the default behavior to be with a
toolbar. So, I am wondering if it is possible to do something like:
fig = figure(toolbar=False) # Create a new figure window with no toolbar.

If it is not possible now, I am wondering if the matplotlib team has any
intention to implement that feature. I would think it is not hard to do so,
since it is so easy to achieve that goal by setting a parameter. But I
could very much be wrong, as I know nothing about how things work under the
hood for matplotlib.

Anyway, I am mostly just curious, since I have already got a workaround for
that. But it would be nice to know other's people's approaches/ideas. :-)

Thank you very much.
