Re: [Matplotlib-users] Changing figure background color (through rcparams?)

[Pierre Haessig]

Hi,

True enough, I didn't tested in a Notebook, but now it seems to work as
well:

https://gist.github.com/pierre-haessig/9779940
http://nbviewer.ipython.org/gist/pierre-haessig/9779940

(just a test with mpl.rcParams['axes.facecolor'] = 'red')

best,
Pierre

 Thanks Pierre.

 I tried this with several different color types and couldn't see any
 difference in my plots in the notebook.  Did you by chance try this
 out and see a difference?

 I think that 'axes.facecolor' does the job.

 'figure.facecolor' changes the background of the figure outside the
 plots (axes), that is the background color of the windows (which
 is not
 visible in the Notebook).
