Thought you might want to know that matplotlib now supports the
sans-serif glyphs in the STIX fonts. Just set the rcParam
"mathtext.fontset" to "stixsans".
There is now experimental support for custom fonts in math mode.
You'll need to set "mathtext.use_cm" to False, and then set up a mapping
from each of the TeX font names to the name of your desired font.
It is assumed that the fonts are Unicode fonts -- it will use the same
font for both Latin

I believe the rcParams you're referring to actually affect the (now
deprecated) mathtext2, which explains why they're having no effect ;)
Sorry about that.
These will soon be replaced with a new way to handle custom Unicode
fonts, that is mostly working, but may not produce the best results.

I would like to use sans-serif math fonts in mathtext (inspired by
Tufte -- most of his examples use sans fonts).
Apparently there are rcParams options to be set, however, I keep
getting computer modern math fonts. I would like to use the
FreeSansOblique for the math italic font. How do I
