I’m having problems to simply set ‘bold’ the font weight of some annotations. Tryin’this:
fig = plt.figure(frameon=False)
ax = plt.gca()
font = matplotlib.font_manager.FontProperties(family=‘Tahoma’, weight=‘extra bold’, size=12)
annotation_total = ax.annotate(‘Total:’, xy=(0, -320), xycoords=‘axes points’, horizontalalignment=‘left’, verticalalignment=‘top’,
fontproperties=font)
The Family and Size work perfectly, only weight is ignored.
Can you add the following to the top of your script:
import matplotlib
matplotlib.rcParams['verbose.level'] = 'debug-annoying'
and send the output here?
Most likely the font matching is failing on some other property (e.g. Tahoma) and reverting to the default font, which is non-bold. I don't have the Microsoft fonts installed here, so I can't test whether there's something in particular about them that is causing this failure.
Cheers,
Mike

MIchael,
That’s it.
I don’t have microsoft fonts installed, so it’s really reverting to the default font. When I put ‘sans-serif’, instead of ‘Tahoma’, it works perfectly.
Thanks.
