Bug report
Bug summary
shift + w
should close all open figures, as outlined in the docs. However, the shortcut does not seem to have any effect. Furthermore, none of the other equivalent -- albeit undocumented -- keybindings as defined in plt.rcParams
('keymap.quit_all': ['W', 'cmd+W', 'Q'],
) have any effect either.
This is in contrast to ctrl + w
, which is supposed to close a single figure, and does that just fine.
Code for reproduction
fig1 = plt.figure()
fig2 = plt.figure()
# press shift + w
Actual outcome
Nothing happens.
Expected outcome
All figures are closed.
