how to use it
Copy the file cpi.mplstyle into the directory with your analysis and tell
matplotlib to use this style:
from matplotlib import pyplot
pyplot.style.use('./cpi.mplstyle')
For usage with other graphing libraries like searborn:
from matplotlib import pyplot
import seaborn
pyplot.style.use('./cpi.mplstyle')
Be aware that the set* functions of seaborn (like set_theme) might mess with the
matplotlib style. The seaborn.set_palette() function to change line colors seems to be woring fine
set as default style
To use this style as your default matplotlib style, have a look at the matplotlib documentation
how to make changes
Please add changes only to the file custom cpi style.txt. After modifying the file use python3 compile.py to generate a file with custom styles.
