I don't know if this might be a bug (in VSCode), the very nature of the package or other things. \r\n\r\nThe saving process of the figure goes smoothly. Code for reference: \r\n\r\n```\r\nwith open('cdImg.pickle', 'wb') as f:\r\n                pickle.dump(f1, f)\r\n```\r\n However, when I load the figure in **Ipython** with the following code: \r\n\r\n    In [1]: import pickle\r\n    \r\n    In [2]: import matplotlib.pyplot as plt\r\n    \r\n    In [3]: candleFig = pickle.load(open('cdImg.pickle', 'rb'))\r\n    \r\n    In [4]: candleFig.show() ### Here plt.show() also works. \r\n\r\nThe image shows perfectly. Using that same code in **VSCode** (**within the same env; hence, same python and package versions**) I don't get the figure, but the program executes perfectly and without any error.\r\n\r\nIn contrast, if I execute the following in VSCode: \r\n\r\n ```\r\nimport pickle\r\nimport matplotlib.pyplot as plt\r\n\r\ndef loadImage():\r\n    \r\n    candleFig = pickle.load(open('cdImg.pickle', 'rb'))\r\n        \r\n    plt.show() ### In the IPython example it was: candleFig.show()\r\n    \r\nif __name__ == '__main__':\r\n    \r\n    loadImage()\r\n```\r\nIt loads the image perfectly. Notice the change from `candleFig` in ipython to `plt.show()` in VSCode. \r\n\r\n¿Is there anything I'm missing about the candleFig.show() not working in VSCode? \r\n\r\nMatplotlib version: 3.0.2\r\nPython version: 3.6.8\r\nIpython: 6.4.0\r\nPickle version: 4.0\r\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/Eriz11","@type":"Person","name":"Eriz11"},"datePublished":"2019-03-04T19:49:08.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":2},"url":"https://github.com/13586/matplotlib/issues/13586"}
