eps without figure frame

I tried that before. It gives a filled white frame

You might want to try again. This is pretty much guaranteed to work.
The Figure.draw method in figure.py reads:

  if self.frameon: self.figurePatch.draw(renderer)

I don't see how the patch can be drawn if frameon is false...

Maybe we're not talking about the same frame? I attached a bitmap created with skencil after having converted the eps with pstoedit. I coloured the frame green.

I just checked by inserting a print statement, that self.frameon is True 4 times during one run of simple_plot.py with figure(frameon=False)
