When creating figures, it is now possible to define figure sizes in cm or pixel.
Up to now the figure size is specified via plt.figure(..., figsize=(6, 4)),
and the given numbers are interpreted as inches. It is now possible to add a
unit string to the tuple, i.e. plt.figure(..., figsize=(600, 400, "px")).
Supported unit strings are "in", "cm", "px".
