Per-bar styling was added later on, and I don't think there's a strong need to support this additional use case with an added plural alias.\r\n\r\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/timhoffm","@type":"Person","name":"timhoffm"},"datePublished":"2024-11-05T22:53:22.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":1},"url":"https://github.com/29090/matplotlib/issues/29090"}
