[Matplotlib-users] Clip_on not being set

[Edward A. <Edw...@da...>]

It took me a while to work out how to stop my lines getting clipped at
the axes edges (this is especially troublesome for lines that run along
an axis as the half that falls outside the axis gets clipped, as do the
marker symbols)

Anyway, have a look at the following snippet (I am uing the WXAgg
backend, and have imported pylab):
>>> p =3D plot([1,2,3], color =3D 'r', clip_on =3D False)
>>> p[0].get_color()   #is set as expected
'r'
>>> p[0].get_clip_on()  # should be False, but is True
True
>>> p[0].set_clip_on(False)  #Can be set manually
>>> p[0].get_clip_on()
False
>>>

At present, the clip_on property needs to be set manually, rather than
from within the plot command
Cheers,

Ed
