seaborn.objects doesn't respect matplotlibrc file

[paw-lu]

Seems that charts created with seaborn.objects.Plot don't respect a users matplotlibrc file (functional plotting still does though). Is there a way to get plots created from seaborn.objects to intake the preferences in matplotlibrc file?

Loving the new changes, and really enjoying the seaborn.objects interface. Incredible work here.

This is by design see #3005 for more commentary

Thanks @mwaskom for the pointer!

Seems like similar to what is shown in #3005 , we can force the rcParams by adding a .theme(matplotlib.pyplot.rcParams) at the end. Modifying my original example:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
import seaborn as sns
import seaborn.objects as so


rng = np.random.default_rng(42)
size = 20
df = pd.DataFrame(
    {
        "a": rng.normal(0, 1, size=size),
        "b": rng.normal(1, 2, size=size),
        "c": rng.choice(("a", "b", "c"), size=size),
    }
)
df.pipe(so.Plot, x="a", y="b", color="c").add(so.Dot()).theme(plt.rcParams)  # Change is here!

Oh yes, sorry if that wasn't obvious: that's the best way to accomplish what you want right now.
