Re: [Matplotlib-users] plot control

[Benjamin R. <ben...@gm...>]

This would seem like a bug in that package's code. The traceback shows that
it is performing its own check on the passed in kwargs, and failing to
recognize it as a valid argument. I suggest contacting the maintainers of
the "skill_metrics" package and find out from them if there is a bug in
their package. I am unfamiliar with this package, so I can't say anything
for certain.

Cheers!
