<p>I’m not trying to make a good looking figure here, but just to show
some examples of customizing rc params on the fly</p>
<p>If you like to work interactively, and need to create different sets
of defaults for figures (e.g., one set of defaults for publication, one
set for interactive exploration), you may want to define some
functions in a custom module that set the defaults, e.g.,:</p>
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="k">def</span> <span class="nf">set_pub</span><span class="p">():</span>
<span class="n">rc</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">'font'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">weight</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s1">'bold'</span><span class="p">)</span> <span class="c1"># bold fonts are easier to see</span>
<span class="n">rc</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">'tick'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">labelsize</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="mi">15</span><span class="p">)</span> <span class="c1"># tick labels bigger</span>
<span class="n">rc</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">'lines'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">lw</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="mi">1</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">color</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s1">'k'</span><span class="p">)</span> <span class="c1"># thicker black lines</span>
<span class="n">rc</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">'grid'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">c</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s1">'0.5'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">ls</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s1">'-'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">lw</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="mf">0.5</span><span class="p">)</span> <span class="c1"># solid gray grid lines</span>
<span class="n">rc</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">'savefig'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">dpi</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="mi">300</span><span class="p">)</span> <span class="c1"># higher res outputs</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Then as you are working interactively, you just need to do:</p>
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">set_pub</span><span class="p">()</span>
<span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">subplot</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="mi">111</span><span class="p">)</span>
<span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">plot</span><span class="p">([</span><span class="mi">1</span><span class="p">,</span><span class="mi">2</span><span class="p">,</span><span class="mi">3</span><span class="p">])</span>
<span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">savefig</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">'myfig'</span><span class="p">)</span>
<span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">rcdefaults</span><span class="p">()</span> <span class="c1"># restore the defaults</span>
</pre></div>
