Follow up from #876.
The
_ = axes[1].set_title(...)pattern used everywhere in the mooc doesn't render anything in the Choice of n_components in the unsupervised case notebook.After some investigation, the issue seems to be that
skrub.TableReportgenerates its per-column sparkline SVGs using matplotlib'src_contextinternally (though patched in skrub#1172, skrub 0.4.1). Entering and exitingrc_contextinside a Jupyter kernel can silently disable that post-execute hook, then every subsequent cell in that execution loses auto inline display. This is a known, still-open matplotlib bug (matplotlib#25041). As the underlying matplotlib issue has not being fixed upstream, it can resurface with different matplotlib/skrub version combinations.The proposed fix is then to simply use
plt.show()as it doesn't depend on that hook. It explicitly renders each open figure, so it works whether or not the hook is still installed.
