[FIXED] How to make a matplotlib screen fullscreen without hiding the taskbar- Python

Issue

Let's say I have the following chunk of code:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

manager = plt.get_current_fig_manager()
manager.full_screen_toggle()
plt.show()

The screen is set to be in fullscreen mode. My issue is that the taskbar is being hidden. How do I adjust the fullscreen mode so that it doesn't hide my taskbar?

Solution

I usually use

mng = plt.get_current_fig_manager()
mng.frame.Maximize(True)

before the call to plt.show(), and I get a maximized window. This works for the 'wx' backend only.

Or try this,

wm = plt.get_current_fig_manager()
wm.window.state('zoomed')
