All,
I just submitted bug #2963827 detailing this, but thought that I would echo the problem here. When plotting annotations and specifying the FontProperties to use, the specified values are completely ignored. See the attached script and image for an example. Am I doing something inherently wrong, or is this really a bug? Thanks, --James Evans
