Description
I find the default inline plotting DPI (72) of figures in Jupyter too small and would like to plot inline figures at 100 by default. However, the (i) import of pyplot and (ii) use of %matplotlib inline both seem to override the figure.dpi setting of 100 I have put in my .matplotlibrc file. I can address this issue by using mpl.rcParams['figure.dpi'] = 100 after importing pyplot and running %matplotlib inline, but think it would be better if this was not required every time.
I'm not sure if this is an issue with matplotlib, Jupyter Notebook and/or ipykernel.
Any assistance appreciated.
Issue 1: Import of pyplot overrides figure.dpi in .matplotlibrc
Issue 2: Use of %matplotlib inline magic overrides figure.dpi in .matplotlibrc
