[Matplotlib-users] How to turn off matplotlib DEBUG msgs

Tue Mar 20 17:37:45 EDT 2018

matplotlib now uses the standard python logging library.  You should ask `obspy` if they are setting the default debug level for other packages.

But for now, something like the following in your script should quiet matplotlib down.

```
import logging
mpl_logger = logging.getLogger(‘matplotlib’)
mpl_logger.setLevel(logging.WARNING)

```
