Re: [matplotlib-devel] Patch: layering errorbars behind plot

Hi Norbert,
I think this is the best place to post patches like this.
There was some discussion a while back about the layer ordering of
errorbars and other objects in the plot window. It was decided to leave it
unchanged for the moment since about half of users want it one way and half
the other. Some ideas were raised like being able to specify layers as
command parameters or change the default in the resource file. I think that
until this is pursued, it is unlikely that anything will be done.
