Cropping space outside of the chart

[Jacks349]

Hello! I'm playing with Renko candles and i'm trying to correct a little detail on my chart: when i save the chart, there is always some free space outside of the chart, on the right. I would like to crop or fill that space, here is what i mean:

Here is how i generate the chart:
mpf.plot(df, volume=Volume, type='renko', mav=MovingAverages, renko_params=dict(brick_size=brick_size), figscale=0.5, figratio=(50, 50), style=s, savefig="renkochart.png")

I tried to change figratio, but of course it will only make the chart wider/higher, but it won't remove that space; is there any way to do this? Maybe i need to use MPL? By the way, the Renko charts generated by this library are awesome!

Hi @Jacks349 ,

Instead of: savefig="renkochart.png",

try: savefig=dict(fname="renkochart.png",bbox_inches="tight").

Let me know if that works.

Anytime. By the way, I like the colors on your chart. Nice choice!

@DanielGoldfarb Thank you! Yes, it looks good! Here are the colors i used, in case anyone wanted to replicate:
Background (chart and outer chart): #131722. Candle up: #00bed4, candle down: #EB4D5C. Created this style on top of Nightclouds.

See above regarding bbox_inches="tight" and see also #212 (comment).
