pyaf==1.0

In pyaf.TS.Plots.decomp_plot I run unto the warning:

This call to matplotlib.use() has no effect because the backend has already been chosen; matplotlib.use() must be called before pylab, matplotlib.pyplot, or matplotlib.backends is imported for the first time.

As I am using TkAgg backend for pandas prior to calling pyaf.

Would be good to be able manually set this in pyaf

Hi @bb78657

Thanks for the report.

I added these plot functions to be able to make some plots in the jupyter notebooks based on the forecast results. I am not a plotting/visualization expert though.

I designed PyAF to be a computational module, not a visualization software.

A warning is allowed here, if it does not lead to an error.

If you have more sophisiticated use cases, please feel free to use the forecasts and matplotlib.

No worries, not a serious issue, closing this
