Re: [Matplotlib-users] Normalize and special scalar handling

I can certainly see the benefit. As Mike said, I don't think I would use it myself, but I could see non-python users finding it useful. Personally, I think this would be a nice extension that doesn't have to live in the core matplotlib code base. That way release cycles and testing can be done

I totally agree with to general opinion that a command line tool would be beneficial. I've written a simple mpl commandline plotter quite some time ago and use it frequently for quick previews but also to create simple plots for presentations. It features some options to modify the appearance

Yeah, that's what I feared. But in the mean time, are there any best practices to minimize undesired effects like the one above? For example, are there any other functions that need special parameters to not raster their output when writing to a vector format? And is there a way to get a
