Python: Plots closed as soon function finishes

I have a function which plots with the help of matplotlib.pyplot some diagrams. The function is run several times in parallel by

from joblib import Parallel, delayed Parallel(n_jobs=8)(delayed(runConfig)(cnt) for cnt in config)

As soon as all instances have finished, the plots get closed.

How can I keep them alive?

Try `plt.show(block=True)` – DavidG Jul 26 '16 at 14:30
@DavidG. For reference, that would prevent the instances from finishing until the plots were closed, but I do not see this as being a problem for OP unless more information is provided. – Mad Physicist Jul 26 '16 at 14:31
Another option is to save the plots to a file and view them that way. – Mad Physicist Jul 26 '16 at 14:32
I added an alternative answer to the other question that may be more reliable for older versions of mpl. – Mad Physicist Jul 26 '16 at 14:38
