I’m trying to create a pie chart for a presentation. If I turn on shadows, they look fine on the screen (in an IPython notebook), but when I export the file to a PNG file, the shadow is way larger, and looks pretty ugly. Is this a bug? And is there a way to shrink the size of the shadow?
Here’s some sample code that shows the problem: import matplotlib.pyplot as plt numbers = [4380.0, 2474.0, 158] explode=(0, 0, 0.5) plt.pie(numbers, explode=explode,shadow=True) plt.axis('equal') plt.savefig(‘grap.png’, dpi=400) Thanks for any suggestions. By the way, I’m using Matplotlib version 1.4.3 with the Anaconda distribution under OS X.
