Feature Request: to show only specific figure created in `plotting.py` instead of using `plt.show` we use `fig.show`.
Running the code below, Python will pop up the window (figure) created in plotting.py
and also the userfig
window I created independently in this piece of code. Usually if people want to show the userfig
they can just run userfig.show()
.
userfig,ax = plt.subplots() #I want the userfig to be only showed when I use userfig.show()
dataset = pd.read_csv('data.csv', index_col=0, parse_dates= True)
n = len(dataset)
mpf.plot(dataset, type='candle', style='yahoo')
This is due to in plotting.py
it uses plt.show
(which shows all figures created in your Python code, including outside the plotting.py
) instead of specific figure fig.show
to show only the figure created in plotting.py
. The downside of using fig.show
is that it does not have block
argument, but i think this is not a problem, since the user can use plt.show
independently outside the plotting.py
if he needs the block
. I propose this change in plotting.py

This is a very interesting idea. At first glance I like it. Will look into it further to make sure there are no unintended consequences. Thanks for the suggustion.
