[matplotlib-devel] PNG transparency

Yes, but you must explicitly set the transparency on every object you
want to be transparent::
fig = plt.figure()
fig.figurePatch.set_alpha(0.5)
ax = fig.add_subplot(111)
ax.axesPatch.set_alpha(0.5)
l, = ax.plot(x, y, alpha=0.8)
t = ax.set_xlabel('hi', alpha=0.8)
and so on
I wonder if we should support a global rc alpha

PS: these kinds of questions are best for the users list. In general:
"how do I?" or "does such a feature exist?" or "why doesn't this
work?" or "can you add this feature?" should go on users. "this is
broken in svn" or "will you accept this patch" or "shouldn't the
function x do something else?" and the like should be on the devel

Re: [matplotlib-devel] PNG transparency
Of course, this depends on what you mean by transparency. If you mean to change the alpha of the entire PNG, then yes, the global parameter (or postprocessing) is the way to go. But I'm not sure how useful that is -- that will still lighten things behind the figure and axes patch. A more useful option, IMHO, would be to just make the figure patch and axes patch fully transparent and leave everything else "as is". That avoids the "white box on a colored background" problem.

[matplotlib-devel] Fwd: rgrids and thetagrids raise AttributeError and TypeError
I was playing around with polar plots and trying to alter the grid labels when I ran into some weird errors. Whenever I call pyplot.thetagrids() (and similarly with rgrids) I get: >>> AttributeError: 'PolarAxesSubplot' object has no attribute 'thetagridlines After searching the MPL directory, it didn't seem like thetagridlines was defined anywhere. Alternatively, If I call thetagrids with an argument [e.g. thetagrids(range(45,360,90))], I get >>> TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not iterable which comes from the following line in pyplot: >>> lines, labels = ax.set_thetagrids(*args, **kwargs) Strangely, the set_thetagrids method of PolarAxes doesn't return any values and this is causing the TypeError above. I'm really confused about these errors. Any help would be greatly appreciated. -Tony PS: Full tracebacks are shown below. I'm on MPL trunk, r5588.
