I noticed this bug last week (and forgot to send it in until now.. I know.. shame on me..).
Here is the workaround (responsible for my laziness): figure(dpi=500) # make a figure savefig(dpi=500) That is, as long as the figure and savefig dpi match, it looks alright. Otherwise, the tick labels are off. I'm using recent svn (trunk). -Rob On Jan 31, 2008, at 8:00 AM, Eric Firing wrote: > In the course of answering a question by Alan Isaac, I saved some > figures at different dpi values and hit a bug with png output: > > imshow(rand(100,100)) > gcf().savefig('f200.png', dpi=200) > > This results in tick labels that overlap the image, and it gets worse > with higher dpi.
