Along the lines of Mike's suggestion, I thought this could be done using
Latex.
I posted an answer on SO with an example of doing this, but it seems only
to work with postscript backend. Other backends override the color with the
mpl text color setting.
Is there a way to prevent this override?
Hi Per,
I think you want to use the 'ticklabel_format' method:
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/api/pyplot_api.html#matplotlib.pyplot.ticklabel_format
Here's your example modified some. 'some_point2A.pdf' produces exactly the
same as the default. 'some_point2B.pdf' does not use an offset, and
I'm trying to update the position of an annotation. If I add an annotation,
change it's position using set_position, I find the value of the position
(found using get_position) is updated, but the actual position on the
figure does not change. How can I actually change the position of the text
and
