Bug report
Bug summary
Text cannot be animated with blit=True. Code works fine with blit=False.
Code for reproduction
import matplotlib.animation
import matplotlib.pyplot
Animation = matplotlib.animation.FuncAnimation(
matplotlib.pyplot.figure(),
lambda x: (matplotlib.pyplot.suptitle(int(x)),),
frames=1,
blit=True)
matplotlib.pyplot.show(block=True)
Actual outcome
This error:
