Folks, Happy to announce the only slightly delayed release of 2.0.1, the first bug fix release for 2.0.x series. Source and wheels are an pypi and conda packages are available from the conda forge channel pip install --upgrade matplotlib or conda install matplotlib -c conda-forge This release includes bug fixes, documentation updates and one major change. API - Do not clip the linewidth used for dash pattern scaling. This is an API change, but is a major improvement. - Deprecate 'vega' color names in favor of 'tab'. Bug Fixes - Hatching color follows edge color again. - Fixes a critical bug with masked images. - Improved high-dpi support for Qt5. - Log ticking no never skip minor ticks - Do not skip points surrounded by nan/inf in vector outputs. Supported versions of Python - 2.7, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6 - Patches to improve compatibility with pypy Many thanks to everyone who helped with this release! Thanks to Mathew Brett and Christoph Gohlke for building the wheels. Tom
