Hi,

lots of user requests mentioned the problem of a too big bounding box in saved 
figures. Some even provided patches to the svn (http://www.nabble.com/savefig-
with-tight-bounding-box.-td21515002.html).

To date there is no way of automatically getting a figure plotted so tightly 
that it could be directly included in e.g. a tex file. All the time I have to
1. plot it also in svg, 
2. then open inkscape, 
3. ungroup, 
4. remove the big white background rectangle, 
5. export to pdf, 
5. pdfcrop it.

Isn't there a convenient way just to not plot the big white rectangle in 
matplotlib? It would solve the whole problem. Just setting transparent=True in 
savefig() doesn't work, as the rectangle still exists.

Regards,
wr
