Hello List -
A while back, the default font changed in the matplotlibrc file.
Does anybody recall what the old default font was?
I kinda liked it better than the current font, but I don’t recall what it was.
Thanks,
Mark
The default font listing was
#font.serif : Bitstream Vera Serif, New Century Schoolbook,
Century Schoolbook L, Utopia, ITC Bookman, Bookman, Nimbus Roman No9
L, Times New Roman, Times, Palatino, Charter, serif
#font.sans-serif : Bitstream Vera Sans, Lucida Grande, Verdana,
Geneva, Lucid, Arial, Helvetica, Avant Garde, sans-serif
#font.cursive : Apple Chancery, Textile, Zapf Chancery, Sand, cursive
#font.fantasy : Comic Sans MS, Chicago, Charcoal, Impact,
Western, fantasy
#font.monospace : Bitstream Vera Sans Mono, Andale Mono, Nimbus
Mono L, Courier New, Courier, Fixed, Terminal, monospace
in the rc file. In the last release, we decided to go with a
"commented out" rc file and rely on internal defaults unless user
explicitly uncommented something. This makes it easier for us to
change the default ors rc settings and not generate as many warnings
to naive users. But when we went to the internal default, for some
reason this listing was not preserved internally. I just readded it
and committed it.
Before this, there was a different ordering but I would have to dig
through the svn archive to find it. I decided to make bitstream the
default since we ship it. If you are referring to the "pre bitstream"
default, I suggest you start poking through older revisions of the
matplotlibrc.template file in svn.
