Notes
For a temporary change, this can be used as a context manager:
if interactive mode is off
then figures will not be shown on creation
plt.ioff()
This figure will not be shown immediately
fig = plt.figure()
with plt.ion(): # interactive mode will be on # figures will automatically be shown fig2 = plt.figure() # ...
To enable optional usage as a context manager, this function returns a context manager object, which is not intended to be stored or accessed by the user.
