Thanks! I only did a spot check on some of the values and did not find any differences. I agree that the values in the old matplotlibrc are likely to be the more reasonable defaults. Furthermore, anybody who didn't think about the issue would probably have used these values anyway, so your changes should give the best backwards compatibility. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
