figure facecolor lost during save

Hello,
I can successfully change the facecolor in a figure but when I try and save it to a file (jpg or png) the color goes away - the rest of the plot remains only the facecolor reverts to white. I have tried using GTK and GTKAgg. I have also tried changing the ‘savefig’ value in the RC file - though I’m not sure this is relevant because I’m not using the savefig command. So far nothing is working. Any ideas?
Thanks,

Mike

There is a savefig rc parameter for setting the face color when saving, which
is probably overriding your changes.

Thanks for the quick reply but I have tried changing the savefig parameter in the rc file and it makes no
difference.
