How to remove window frame from program using Tkinter and Matplotlib
<p>I am writing a graphical program in Python for my Raspberry Pi project.  I have started writing it using Tkinter and wish to use the Matplotlib tools.  </p>

<p>Due to limited screen space and the purpose of the project, I want it to be fullscreen without a window frame and menubar showing.  Normally I use the following command:</p>

<pre><code>app.overrideredirect(1)
</code></pre>

<p>This works great until I import Matplotlib.  Once I do that, the window frame appears again even with the above line of code. </p>

<p>How can I get Matplotlib to not show the window frame or menubars and be completely fullscreen?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>I found the problem.  The example code I followed involved using the command canvas.show() along with canvas.get_tk_widget().grid(...).  The canvas.show() was not needed and caused it to override the app.overrideredirect(1) command.</p>
