### MATPLOTLIBRC FORMAT
# This is a sample matplotlib configuration file - you can find a copy
# of it on your system in
# site-packages/matplotlib/mpl-data/matplotlibrc. If you edit it
# there, please note that it will be overwritten in your next install.
# If you want to keep a permanent local copy that will not be
# overwritten, place it in the following location:
# unix/linux:
# $HOME/.config/matplotlib/matplotlibrc or
# $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/matplotlib/matplotlibrc (if $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is set)
# other platforms:
# $HOME/.matplotlib/matplotlibrc
#
# See http://matplotlib.org/users/customizing.html#the-matplotlibrc-file for
# more details on the paths which are checked for the configuration file.
#
# This file is best viewed in a editor which supports python mode
# syntax highlighting. Blank lines, or lines starting with a comment
# symbol, are ignored, as are trailing comments. Other lines must
# have the format
# key : val # optional comment
#
# Colors: for the color values below, you can either use - a
# matplotlib color string, such as r, k, or b - an rgb tuple, such as
# (1.0, 0.5, 0.0) - a hex string, such as ff00ff - a scalar
# grayscale intensity such as 0.75 - a legal html color name, e.g., red,
# blue, darkslategray
#### CONFIGURATION BEGINS HERE
# The default backend; one of GTK GTKAgg GTKCairo GTK3Agg GTK3Cairo
# MacOSX Qt4Agg Qt5Agg TkAgg WX WXAgg Agg Cairo GDK PS PDF SVG
# Template.
# You can also deploy your own backend outside of matplotlib by
# referring to the module name (which must be in the PYTHONPATH) as
# 'module://my_backend'.
backend : $TEMPLATE_BACKEND
# If you are using the Qt4Agg backend, you can choose here
# to use the PyQt4 bindings or the newer PySide bindings to
# the underlying Qt4 toolkit.
#backend.qt4 : PyQt4 # PyQt4 | PySide
# Note that this can be overridden by the environment variable
# QT_API used by Enthought Tool Suite (ETS); valid values are
# "pyqt" and "pyside". The "pyqt" setting has the side effect of
# forcing the use of Version 2 API for QString and QVariant.
# The port to use for the web server in the WebAgg backend.
# webagg.port : 8888
# If webagg.port is unavailable, a number of other random ports will
# be tried until one that is available is found.
# webagg.port_retries : 50
# When True, open the webbrowser to the plot that is shown
# webagg.open_in_browser : True
# When True, the figures rendered in the nbagg backend are created with
# a transparent background.
# nbagg.transparent : False
# if you are running pyplot inside a GUI and your backend choice
# conflicts, we will automatically try to find a compatible one for
# you if backend_fallback is True
#backend_fallback: True
#interactive : False
#toolbar : toolbar2 # None | toolbar2 ("classic" is deprecated)
#timezone : UTC # a pytz timezone string, e.g., US/Central or Europe/Paris

### FONT
#
# font properties used by text.Text. See
# http://matplotlib.org/api/font_manager_api.html for more
# information on font properties. The 6 font properties used for font
# matching are given below with their default values.
#
# The font.family property has five values: 'serif' (e.g., Times),
# 'sans-serif' (e.g., Helvetica), 'cursive' (e.g., Zapf-Chancery),
# 'fantasy' (e.g., Western), and 'monospace' (e.g., Courier). Each of
# these font families has a default list of font names in decreasing
# order of priority associated with them. When text.usetex is False,
# font.family may also be one or more concrete font names.
#
# The font.style property has three values: normal (or roman), italic
# or oblique. The oblique style will be used for italic, if it is not
# present.
#
# The font.variant property has two values: normal or small-caps. For
# TrueType fonts, which are scalable fonts, small-caps is equivalent
# to using a font size of 'smaller', or about 83%% of the current font
# size.
#
# The font.weight property has effectively 13 values: normal, bold,
# bolder, lighter, 100, 200, 300, ..., 900. Normal is the same as
# 400, and bold is 700. bolder and lighter are relative values with
# respect to the current weight.
#
# The font.stretch property has 11 values: ultra-condensed,
# extra-condensed, condensed, semi-condensed, normal, semi-expanded,
# expanded, extra-expanded, ultra-expanded, wider, and narrower. This
# property is not currently implemented.
#
# The font.size property is the default font size for text, given in pts.
# 10 pt is the standard value.
#
#font.family : sans-serif
#font.style : normal
#font.variant : normal
#font.weight : medium
#font.stretch : normal
# note that font.size controls default text sizes. To configure
# special text sizes tick labels, axes, labels, title, etc, see the rc
# settings for axes and ticks. Special text sizes can be defined
# relative to font.size, using the following values: xx-small, x-small,
# small, medium, large, x-large, xx-large, larger, or smaller
#font.size : 10.0
#font.serif : DejaVu Serif, Bitstream Vera Serif, New Century Schoolbook, Century Schoolbook L, Utopia, ITC Bookman, Bookman, Nimbus Roman No9 L, Times New Roman, Times, Palatino, Charter, serif
#font.sans-serif : DejaVu Sans, Bitstream Vera Sans, Lucida Grande, Verdana, Geneva, Lucid, Arial, Helvetica, Avant Garde, sans-serif
#font.cursive : Apple Chancery, Textile, Zapf Chancery, Sand, Script MT, Felipa, cursive
#font.fantasy : Comic Sans MS, Chicago, Charcoal, Impact, Western, Humor Sans, xkcd, fantasy
#font.monospace : DejaVu Sans Mono, Bitstream Vera Sans Mono, Andale Mono, Nimbus Mono L, Courier New, Courier, Fixed, Terminal, monospace
### TEXT
# text properties used by text.Text. See
# http://matplotlib.org/api/artist_api.html#module-matplotlib.text for more
# information on text properties
#text.color : black
### LaTeX customizations. See http://wiki.scipy.org/Cookbook/Matplotlib/UsingTex
#text.usetex : False # use latex for all text handling. The following fonts
# are supported through the usual rc parameter settings:
# new century schoolbook, bookman, times, palatino,
# zapf chancery, charter, serif, sans-serif, helvetica,
# avant garde, courier, monospace, computer modern roman,
# computer modern sans serif, computer modern typewriter
# If another font is desired which can loaded using the
# LaTeX \usepackage command, please inquire at the
# matplotlib mailing list
#text.latex.unicode : False # use "ucs" and "inputenc" LaTeX packages for handling
# unicode strings.
#text.latex.preamble : # IMPROPER USE OF THIS FEATURE WILL LEAD TO LATEX FAILURES
# AND IS THEREFORE UNSUPPORTED. PLEASE DO NOT ASK FOR HELP
# IF THIS FEATURE DOES NOT DO WHAT YOU EXPECT IT TO.
# preamble is a comma separated list of LaTeX statements
# that are included in the LaTeX document preamble.
# An example:
# text.latex.preamble : \usepackage{bm},\usepackage{euler}
# The following packages are always loaded with usetex, so
# beware of package collisions: color, geometry, graphicx,
# type1cm, textcomp. Adobe Postscript (PSSNFS) font packages
# may also be loaded, depending on your font settings
#text.dvipnghack : None # some versions of dvipng don't handle alpha
# channel properly. Use True to correct
# and flush ~/.matplotlib/tex.cache
# before testing and False to force
# correction off. None will try and
# guess based on your dvipng version
#text.hinting : auto # May be one of the following:
# 'none': Perform no hinting
# 'auto': Use FreeType's autohinter
# 'native': Use the hinting information in the
# font file, if available, and if your
# FreeType library supports it
# 'either': Use the native hinting information,
# or the autohinter if none is available.
# For backward compatibility, this value may also be
# True === 'auto' or False === 'none'.
#text.hinting_factor : 8 # Specifies the amount of softness for hinting in the
# horizontal direction. A value of 1 will hint to full
# pixels. A value of 2 will hint to half pixels etc.
#text.antialiased : True # If True (default), the text will be antialiased.
# This only affects the Agg backend.
# The following settings allow you to select the fonts in math mode.
# They map from a TeX font name to a fontconfig font pattern.
# These settings are only used if mathtext.fontset is 'custom'.
# Note that this "custom" mode is unsupported and may go away in the
# future.
#mathtext.cal : cursive
#mathtext.rm : serif
#mathtext.tt : monospace
#mathtext.it : serif:italic
#mathtext.bf : serif:bold
#mathtext.sf : sans
#mathtext.fontset : dejavusans # Should be 'dejavusans' (default),
# 'dejavuserif', 'cm' (Computer Modern), 'stix',
# 'stixsans' or 'custom'
#mathtext.fallback_to_cm : True # When True, use symbols from the Computer Modern
# fonts when a symbol can not be found in one of
# the custom math fonts.
#mathtext.default : it # The default font to use for math.
# Can be any of the LaTeX font names, including
# the special name "regular" for the same font
# used in regular text.
### AXES
# default face and edge color, default tick sizes,
# default fontsizes for ticklabels, and so on. See
# http://matplotlib.org/api/axes_api.html#module-matplotlib.axes

#axes.labelweight : normal # weight of the x and y labels
#axes.labelcolor : black
#axes.axisbelow : 'line' # draw axis gridlines and ticks below
# patches (True); above patches but below
# lines ('line'); or above all (False)
#axes.formatter.limits : -7, 7 # use scientific notation if log10
# of the axis range is smaller than the
# first or larger than the second
#axes.formatter.use_locale : False # When True, format tick labels
# according to the user's locale.
# For example, use ',' as a decimal
# separator in the fr_FR locale.
#axes.formatter.use_mathtext : False # When True, use mathtext for scientific
# notation.
#axes.formatter.useoffset : True # If True, the tick label formatter
# will default to labeling ticks relative
# to an offset when the data range is very
# small compared to the minimum absolute
# value of the data.
# axes.spines.left : True # display axis spines
# axes.spines.bottom : True
# axes.spines.top : True
# axes.spines.right : True
#axes.unicode_minus : True # use unicode for the minus symbol

### DATES
# These control the default format strings used in AutoDateFormatter.
# Any valid format datetime format string can be used (see the python
# `datetime` for details). For example using '%%x' will use the locale date representation
# '%%X' will use the locale time representation and '%%c' will use the full locale datetime
# representation.
# These values map to the scales:
# {'year': 365, 'month': 30, 'day': 1, 'hour': 1/24, 'minute': 1 / (24 * 60)}
# date.autoformatter.year : %Y
# date.autoformatter.month : %Y-%m

# and prevent an Agg rendering failure
# when plotting very large data sets,
# especially if they are very gappy.
# It may cause minor artifacts, though.
# A value of 20000 is probably a good
# starting point.
### SAVING FIGURES

# vertices will be removed in the simplification
# process

# the nearest pixel when certain criteria are met. When False,
# paths will never be snapped.
#path.sketch : None # May be none, or a 3-tuple of the form (scale, length,
# randomness).
# *scale* is the amplitude of the wiggle
# perpendicular to the line (in pixels). *length*
# is the length of the wiggle along the line (in
# pixels). *randomness* is the factor by which
# the length is randomly scaled.

# svg backend params
#svg.image_inline : True # write raster image data directly into the svg file
#svg.fonttype : 'path' # How to handle SVG fonts:

# Opera and Safari
#svg.hashsalt : None # if not None, use this string as hash salt
# instead of uuid4
# docstring params
#docstring.hardcopy = False # set this when you want to generate hardcopy docstring
# Set the verbose flags. This controls how much information
# matplotlib gives you at runtime and where it goes. The verbosity
# levels are: silent, helpful, debug, debug-annoying. Any level is
# inclusive of all the levels below it. If your setting is "debug",
# you'll get all the debug and helpful messages. When submitting
# problems to the mailing-list, please set verbose to "helpful" or "debug"
# and paste the output into your report.
#
# The "fileo" gives the destination for any calls to verbose.report.
# These objects can a filename, or a filehandle like sys.stdout.
#
# You can override the rc default verbosity from the command line by
# giving the flags --verbose-LEVEL where LEVEL is one of the legal
# levels, e.g., --verbose-helpful.
#
# You can access the verbose instance in your code
# from matplotlib import verbose.
