rcparams

in version 2.2. In order to force the use of a specific Qt binding,

either import that binding first, or set the ``QT_API`` environment

variable.

`.Axes.annotate()` instead.

- Passing (n, 1)-shaped error arrays to `.Axes.errorbar()`, which was not

documented and did not work for ``n = 2``. Pass a 1D array instead.

transparent (``"none"``, or ``(0, 0, 0, 0)``).

- Passing a non-1D (typically, (n, 1)-shaped) input to `.Axes.pie`.

Pass a 1D array instead.

- passing ``(verts, 0)`` or ``(..., 3)`` when specifying a marker to specify a

path or a circle, respectively (instead, use ``verts`` or ``"o"``,

respectively)

The following members of ``matplotlib.backends.backend_pdf.PdfFile`` were removed:

Passing e.g. both *linewidth* and *linewidths* will raise a TypeError in the

future.

These rcParams should be set to string values. Support for None (meaning the

empty string) and lists of strings (implicitly joined with newlines) is

deprecated.

The *quality*, *optimize*, and *progressive* keyword arguments to

`~.Figure.savefig`, which were only used when saving to JPEG, are deprecated.

Such options should now be directly passed to Pillow using

``savefig(..., pil_kwargs={"quality": ..., "optimize": ..., "progressive": ...})``.

- :rc:`axes.axisbelow` no longer accepts strings starting with "line"

(case-insensitive) as "line"; use "line" (case-sensitive) instead.

- All ``*.linestyle`` rcParams no longer accept ``offset = None``; set the

offset to 0 instead.

`.Text.set_rotation_mode` will make `.Text.get_rotation_mode` return ``"default"``

instead of ``None``. The behaviour otherwise is the same.

saved.

The proposed solution modifies `.FigureManagerBase` to contain and manage more

other rcParams.

configure the default quality used when a figure is written as a JPEG.

The default quality is 95; previously, the default quality was 75.

This change minimizes the artifacting inherent in JPEG images,

A public API has been added to `.EngFormatter` to control how the numbers in

the ticklabels will be rendered. By default, *useMathText* evaluates to

If either is `True` then the numbers will be encapsulated by ``$``

signs. When using ``TeX`` this implies that the numbers will be shown

'right'. For the ylabel, the supported values are 'bottom', 'center', or

'top'.

.. plot::

The line style of negative contours may be set by passing the

*negative_linestyles* argument to `.Axes.contour`. Previously, this style could

.. plot::

:alt: Two contour plots, each showing two positive and two negative contours. The positive contours are shown in solid black lines in both plots. In one plot the negative contours are shown in dashed lines, which is the current styling. In the other plot they're shown in dotted lines, which is one of the new options.

new figures are opened with the macosx backend. The default is

**system** which uses the system settings, or one can specify either

**tab** or **window** to explicitly choose the mode used to open new figures.
