python seaborn to reset back to the matplotlib

I'm using seaborn version o.4 and matplotlib version 1.42 I have a chart displays both line and marker through simple plot command eg.

plt.plot([1,5,3,8,4],'-bo');

Due to a potential bug (https://github.com/mwaskom/seaborn/issues/344), after import seaborn, same code shows line only without marker.

import seaborn as sb 
plt.plot([1,5,3,8,4],'-bo');

So my question is: after import seaborn, Is there a way to reset all the parameters back to original?

Yes, call seaborn.reset_orig.

None of these solutions worked for me (Python 3.x, Jupyter). What worked was matplotlib.rc_file_defaults()

See the documentation here: https://matplotlib.org/stable/api/matplotlib_configuration_api.html#matplotlib.rc_file_defaults

To refresh Matplotlib's configuration side effects often encountered with Seaborn:

import matplotlib as mpl
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import seaborn as sns

Run this:

import importlib
importlib.reload(mpl); importlib.reload(plt); importlib.reload(sns)

For old Python2 code:

import imp
imp.reload(mpl); imp.reload(plt); imp.reload(sns)

Note: None of the following correctly restores the state of matplotlib:

• sns.reset_orig()
• sns.reset_defaults()
• mpl.rcParams.update(mpl.rcParamsDefault)

In my case I was searching to reset the plot sizes of the output specifically when I changed using the rc attribute used the following code to reset to default size sns.reset_defaults() (where sns is seaborn).

You can set them back to default by doing:

import matplotlib as mpl
mpl.rcParams.update(mpl.rcParamsDefault)

Also, check this post from Jake VanderPlas to learn more about customizing matplotlib.

Hope it helps!

You can save the rcParams you want, before changing the style with seaborn (note that seaborn no longer changes the rcParams upon import):

import matplotlib as mpl

my_params = mpl.rcParams

# apply some change to the rcparams here

mpl.rcParams.update(my_params)

Note that both these

mpl.rcParams.update(mpl.rcParamsOrig)
mpl.rcParams.update(mpl.rcParamsDefault)

restores almost all rcParams to their default value. The few that will be different can easily be viewed by (I ran this in a Jupyter Notebook):

# Differences between current params and `Default`
for key in mpl.rcParamsDefault:
    if not mpl.rcParamsDefault[key] == mpl.rcParams[key]:
        print(key, mpl.rcParamsDefault[key], mpl.rcParams[key])

## backend agg module://ipykernel.pylab.backend_inline
## figure.dpi 100.0 72.0
## figure.edgecolor w (1, 1, 1, 0)
## figure.facecolor w (1, 1, 1, 0)
## figure.figsize [6.4, 4.8] [6.0, 4.0]
## figure.subplot.bottom 0.11 0.125

and

# Differences between `Default` and `Orig`
for key in mpl.rcParamsDefault:
    if not mpl.rcParamsDefault[key] == mpl.rcParamsOrig[key]:
        print(key, mpl.rcParamsDefault[key], mpl.rcParamsOrig[key])

## backend agg Qt5Agg

One can simply call the seaborn.set() function, with no function parameters, see [seaborn tutorial][1].
