bbox_inches='tight' from the navigation toolbar

Hi,

I would often save figures after show() from the savefig button on the 
navigation toolbar.  I would like to trim white spaces using something 
akin to bbox_inches='tight', but haven't been able to figure out how.  I 
tried adding the following to matplotlibrc, but to no avail:

savefig.bbox_inches : tight

The error message is that savefig.bbox_inches is a bad key

Could someone let me know how to do this, if it can be done?  I am using 
Matplotlib 1.1.0

Thanks,
Saurav

Adjust the position of your 'axes' rectangle, e. g.

from pylab import *
x=linspace(0,4*pi,500); y=sin(x)
axes([0.05,0.05,0.93,0.92])
plot(x,y); show()

the details will depend on the size of your labels.

Saurav,

Currently, there is no way to do what you want in v1.1.x.  However, I do think it is a reasonable feature request and you should file an issue ticket on the github website.

Cheers!
