[Matplotlib-users] draw bbox around axes title

2012-01-05 Thread Skipper Seabold
Hi, I'm trying to draw a box around an axes title, and I'm having trouble controlling it. I want the box to span the width of the x axis. I tried some iterations on the below since xy and height/width are hard-coded in set_title, but when I call show, it seems the width of the box is reset. Any id

Is this information incorrect? http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/devel/documenting_mpl.html#module-matplotlib.sphinxext.plot_directive This line seems to preclude ever getting to the below code to process the caption. https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/blob/master/lib/matplotlib/sphinxext/

Just one quick thought. I hope that you will implement a longer default color cycle than the current default. I have several times run into situations where I have to either modify the cycle or specify the colors manually because I had more than 7 lines. Also, it'd be nice to have the colors be
