The _linestyle_ parameter only affects the main connecting line, and modifying the error bars requires accessing the returned object and manually setting e.g. _set_linestyle('--')_ on the error bar lines. \n\n### Proposed solution\n\nIntroduce a new parameter, e.g., _error_linestyle_, that allows users to set the linestyle of the error bars directly. Example usage:\n\n`plt.errorbar(x, y, yerr=yerr, fmt='o', error_linestyle='--')`","author":{"url":"https://github.com/MBeusch","@type":"Person","name":"MBeusch"},"datePublished":"2025-02-26T14:57:35.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":3},"url":"https://github.com/29681/matplotlib/issues/29681"}| route-pattern | /_view_fragments/issues/show/:user_id/:repository/:id/issue_layout(.:format) |
