There is currently no support for bold ticklabels with usetex. > And I've been under > the impression that the default number formattes, at least, don't > render through TeX. I don't understand, what default number formats? When you enable usetex, tex is used to render all text. > So does anyone know how I can make all/any of my > text elemens bold? The tex option was not designed to provide all the flexibility of matplotlib's text handling. It was pretty hairy trying to support as many font properties as we currently support.
