I intend to achieve this by using a list of colors, and a list of linestyles, and then simply plot the bars and set the color and linestyle to their respective lists. This works for color, but not for linestyle, since the linestyle function does not recognize a list as input.\r\n\r\nBelow I have two code snippets, and their respective outputs, which highlights the problem.\r\n\r\nFirst, without using linestyle:\r\n\u003cimg width=\"560\" alt=\"image\" src=\"https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/106192446/172563688-bb3d68cf-5aed-4a3a-9b56-b2c1bdfb172e.png\"\u003e\r\n\r\nThen, using linestyle:\r\n\u003cimg width=\"542\" alt=\"image\" src=\"https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/106192446/172563953-bf041d1a-fe28-4046-8653-479584bd6f33.png\"\u003e\r\n\r\nI have checked that all of the linestyles are compatible with the plt.bar function.\r\n\r\n### Proposed solution\r\n\r\n_No response_","author":{"url":"https://github.com/AndreasBugten","@type":"Person","name":"AndreasBugten"},"datePublished":"2022-06-08T08:02:08.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":3},"url":"https://github.com/23222/matplotlib/issues/23222"}
