Re: [Matplotlib-users] plot axis and legend without anti-aliased lines

[klo uo <kl...@gm...>]

Thanks Paul, that solved the problem.

    matplotlib.rcParams['axes.linewidth'] = 0.5
    matplotlib.rcParams['patch.linewidth'] = 0.5

is what I wanted and I'll put that in matplotlibrc.

Previously I thought that this is related to some anti-aliasing
setting that would affect all lines drawn. But as it is possible to
set this preference to custom plot elements, this is what I would
always prefer. Default setting looks too blurry for horizontal and
vertical lines.


Cheers
