[Matplotlib-users] erasing the figure border

2007-08-20 Thread Johann Cohen-Tanugi
hello,
I am using matplotlib to make a drawing, so though I am using distances 
on the pad I do not need to display the axes and would rather have no 
frame and no tick.
To achieve this, I tried using :
rc('axes', edgecolor='white')
rc('xtick', color='white')
rc('ytick', color='white')

The first command works, but not the 2 tick commands (the ticks still 
show up, in black).. Bug or feature? Besides, I am sure there is a 
better way to do that, but could not find out.
I am using the GTKAgg backend.

thanks,
Johann

If your axes instance is ax, try
 ax.set_frame_on(False)
 ax.set_axis_off()

The api is inconsistent, but there it is...

This will actually wipe out the axes patch as well as the boundary, and 
all traces of the axes; maybe this is more than you want.
