Does this skill support the Object-Oriented Matplotlib API?

Yes, it explicitly recommends and provides implementation patterns for the Object-Oriented interface (Figure/Axes) for superior control and code maintainability.

Can I generate high-resolution figures for publications?

Absolutely. The skill includes specific configurations for DPI settings, vector exports (PDF/SVG), and tight layout management suitable for scientific journals.

Does it handle complex multi-chart layouts?

Yes, it covers standard grids, flexible mosaic layouts, and precise GridSpec configurations for creating intricate multi-panel figures.

How does this help with visualization accessibility?

It promotes best practices like using perceptually uniform, colorblind-friendly colormaps (like viridis) and adding hatching patterns to bar charts.
