Hello,
when adding LaTeX symbols to labels on my figures, most often I use
\mathdefault{} to make Matplotlib use the same fond for the regular text
and for the LaTeX part. Is there a way to configure Matplotlib to use
the regular text by default? Looking at the configuration file I
haven't found anything hinting to it.
Thanks. Cheers,
Daniele
After staring a bit more at the example configuration file, I can answer
my own question. This does the trick:
matplotlib.rcParams['mathtext.fontset'] = 'custom'
I'm a bit worried by the note next to this setting in the example
configuration file, though:
# The following settings allow you to select the fonts in math mode.
# They map from a TeX font name to a fontconfig font pattern.
# These settings are only used if mathtext.fontset is 'custom'.
# Note that this "custom" mode is unsupported and may go away in the
# future.
Why is it unsupported? I find this functionality very neat.
Thanks. Cheers,
Daniele
