Consecutive raster draws now merged
2+
-----------------------------------
3+
4+
Elements of a vector output can be individually set to rasterized, using
5+
the ``rasterized`` keyword, or `~.artist.Artist.set_rasterized()`. This can be useful to
6+
reduce file sizes. For figures with multiple raster elements they are now
7+
automatically merged into a smaller number of bitmaps where this will not
8+
effect the visual output. For cases with many elements this can result in
9+
significantly smaller file sizes.

To ensure this happens do not place vector elements between raster ones.
