Hi,
For a contour plot I use the option 'manual=True' in clabel
to set the location of the labels manually.
Before the plotting command I set some figure properties using
rcParams as explained on this site:
http://www.scipy.org/Cookbook/Matplotlib/LaTeX_Examples
My Problem is, that the manual-option changes the figure
properties and when I use savefig I get a very different result
compared to 'manual=False'.
Is there some way to prevent this or alternatively set the
properties after manually setting the labels?
Thanks in advance,
Valentin
Here is an example.
