Make the median line of matplotlib boxplot invisible

Question

By default, the median line of a matplotlib boxplot is red. How can I make it invisible, or how can I get rid of it?

Answer 1

This example uses a custom setting of medianprops: http://matplotlib.org/examples/statistics/boxplot_demo.html. Try using linewidth=0 or linestyle=None.

How to set the linestyle is described here: http://matplotlib.org/api/lines_api.html#matplotlib.lines.Line2D.set_linestyle
