Hi, I am a fan of the STIX sans serif typeface for mathtext, but I was wondering if it was possible to use this typeface for non-mathtext text as well. My main use for this is ticklabels, which seem to render in the non-mathtext font no matter what I do. I have tried using
ax.xaxis.set_major_formatter(P.ScalarFormatter(useMathText=True)) to force the (scalar) major ticks to use mathtext and thus stixsans, but this does not work. Am I doing something wrong here? A better solution (for me) would be to use STIX sans serif faces as the regular font, ie something like rcParams["font.sans-serif"] = 'stixsans' I know this is possible for serif fonts, and I know that a post to the list back in 2008 noted that it was not (at that time) possible for sans-serifs. I am curious to know if there has been any progress on allowing STIX sans-serifs in non-mathtext text. thanks, Jeff Oishi ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
