Thread: [Matplotlib-users] Save or pickle pyplot object

Hi!
I would like to save a pyplot object as it is, including axes, lines,
text, etc. into a file.
When opening it again, I want to be able to add additional axes, lines
and so on.
Unfortunately pickle does not handle the pyplot object and gives me an
error.
Anyone knows a solution?
All the best
Aki

This has been an often requested feature, but much harder to implement than
expected. There is currently no known solution to this problem, but I
certainly would hope that it becomes possible.
Sorry I could not be of more help.
