Re: [Matplotlib-users] Border appearance
Taking a step back:
What should I be digging into so I'll have the concepts and tools to
manipulate features like color and thickness of borders on a bar chart and
on a pie graph and any parts that may have a border, whether the shadow on a
pie graph is on the lower left or upper right, etc.?
I'm looking at the
tutorialhttp://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/tutorial.html; I'd welcome
suggestions or clarifications about what I should be reading.

There are two borders in question, the figure border and the axes
border. Both are rectangle instances. You can control the figure
border with the figurePatch instance
fig.figurePatch.set_edgecolor('white')
fig.figurePatch.set_linewidth(0.5)
and similarly for the axes axesFrame instance
ax = axes([left, bottom, width, height])
ax.axesFrame.set_edgecolor('red')
ax.axesFrame.set_linewidth(0.5)
You can make the frame invisible in a few different ways:
* set the edgecolor to be the same as the face color
* set the linewidth to 0
* set the visible property to False (ax.axesFrame.set_visible(False))

The tutorial is a good start, as is the user's guide http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/users_guide_0.98.1.pdf some of the user's guide is dated, and the neww docs we are working on (still in beta) are at http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/doc/html/index.html. The screenshots (http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/screenshots.html) and examples (http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/) are good places to go for inspiration. You will probably also want to read the artist tutorial at http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/doc/html/users/artists.html Good luck!

border with the figurePatch instance
How do I query/set the figure in question?
I was specifying the axes earlier, and setting a linewidth of 0 seemed to
remove one of two borders (or, from a non-technical perspective, made the
border half as thick). See before.png and after.png: getting closer at
least...
fig.figurePatch.set_edgecolor('white')
fig.figurePatch.set_linewidth(0.5)
and similarly for the axes axesFrame instance
ax = axes([left, bottom, width, height])
ax.axesFrame.set_edgecolor('red')
