Resolution of density scatter plots

[ayylemao]

Is there an option to keep the original scatter resolution obtainable without setting the plt style to 'science'?

-Plot without science style disabled, high resolution in the scatter density plot

-Same plot with science style enabled, notice low resolution in scatter density plot, especialy visible in top left corner region.

Options Used for plotting:
plt.style.use(['science','ieee', 'scatter'])

Hi @ayylemao

Nothing that I know of in the science style should cause this... if you like, you can add the different parameters to the top of your Python script and try commenting/uncommenting to find the culprit:

import matplotlib as mpl
from cycler import cycler

mpl.rcParams['axes.prop_cycle'] = cycler(color=['0C5DA5', '00B945', 'FF9500', 'FF2C00', '845B97', '474747', '9e9e9e'])

mpl.rcParams['figure.figsize'] = (3.5, 2.625)

# etc

Also try saving with different figure sizes and different files types (png vs jpg vs pdf). You can also try disabling Latex using the no-latex style to see if that changes anything.
