Hello, I have run across an inconsistency in the zorder of markers and lines in the legend for an errorbar as opposed to a plot in matplotlib v1.1.0. After some considerable amount of time reading legend_handler.py and the information at http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/users/legend_guide.html I was unable to figure out how to make the errorbar markers sit 'on top' of the lines in a legend.
For example the following code: import pylab as pl import numpy as np x = pl.arange(-2,2,0.1) y = x**2 dy = np.random.random(len(x)) pl.figure(1) pl.plot(x,y, color='k', linewidth=0.5, linestyle='-', marker='o', markerfacecolor='lime', markeredgecolor='k', markeredgewidth=0.5, label='line1', markersize=10) pl.legend(loc='best', frameon=False) pl.figure(2) pl.errorbar(x,y,yerr=dy, color='k', linewidth=0.5, linestyle='-', marker='o', markerfacecolor='lime', markeredgecolor='k', markeredgewidth=0.5, label='line1', markersize=10, ecolor='lime', capsize=10) pl.legend(loc='best', frameon=False) pl.show() produces a legend for the plot (figure(1)) with the markers on top of the lines, but the legend for the errorbar (figure(2)) has this reversed. Any ideas/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Best, Adrian. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Cloud Services Checklist: Pricing and Packaging Optimization This white paper is intended to serve as a reference, checklist and point of discussion for anyone considering optimizing the pricing and packaging model of a cloud services business.
