Unable to save plots as PDF when using cellcharter.pl.shape_metrics

[peipp410]

I am using the cellcharter.pl.shape_metrics function to generate shape metric plots from an AnnData object. The function successfully displays the plots in the active Matplotlib plotting context but does not provide a way to directly save the generated plots as a PDF file.

I also tried

with plt.rc_context():  # Use this to set figure params like size and dpi  
        cc.pl.shape_metrics...  
        plt.savefig('xxx.pdf', format='pdf')  

but it doesn't work.

So how to save this figure? Thank you for your time and support!

Fixed! It will be available in the next release.
In the meantime you can save it by running

fig = plt.gcf()
fig.savefig('xxx.pdf', format='pdf')
