Description
To follow up on this, the current call to HTMLWriter
only passes three arguments:
matplotlib/lib/matplotlib/animation.py
Lines 1359 to 1361 in 6b2cecc
but there are several more parameters that it could set:
matplotlib/lib/matplotlib/animation.py
Lines 796 to 798 in 6b2cecc
So we could thread through the frame_format
parameter in this PR, but I think it might be better handled in a separate PR that focuses entirely on exposing internal animation parameters. This I think is independent of the issue in this thread, where the rcParams does not allow us to set a default at all currently. Fixing the rcparams check (#17909 ) seems necessary to me, exposing more API seems nice-to-have.
