pgf backend producing invisible dot #1339
Comments
@pwuertz Any ideas? |
I noticed that invisible dot too. It is not caused by the matplotlib backend and you'll find that it is present in any plain tikz / pgf picture. It may be some kind of implementation detail of the tikz package. But if I understood the question correctly, the dot is not the issue. The size of the pgfpicture is defined by the bounding box and the dot doesn't change that. What you asked for is a layout of your figure that takes the available space from the defined
EDIT: it is not caused by the matplotlib backend |
@aragilar One more thing, when including pgf commands instead of precompiled pdf files, you may want to ensure that the fonts you are using are matching those used to layout the figure. You can inspect the setup the backend used by looking at the header of "test.pgf". In your case, you might want to disable the See http://matplotlib.org/1.2.0/users/pgf.html#font-specification for more info. |
Yes, |
Tight layout allows you to define the desired padding between the figure contents and its bounding box. The default behaviour is to use a padding that scales with the font-size. With The figure |
When a plot is exported to pgf, or a pdf produced via the pgf backend, an invisible dot is produced in the bottom left hand corner. Can it be removed so that the visible elements take up more of the plot? I've created a gist with a example showing the invisible dot at https://gist.github.com/3844330.
