Bug report
Bug summary
Matplotlib >= v3.3.3 breaks when using pandas.plotting.register_matplotlib_converters(), ax.pcolormesh(), and and array of datetime.datetime() objects as coordinates.
Code was tested using clean conda environments only differing by Matplotlib version. Versions tested:
- mpl v3.3.2: Code works
- mpl v3.3.3: Code breaks
- mpl v3.4.1: Code breaks
Code for reproduction
The code below will work if the following lines are commented/removed:
from pandas.plotting import register_matplotlib_converters
register_matplotlib_converters()
#!/usr/bin/env python3
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
import datetime
from pandas.plotting import register_matplotlib_converters
register_matplotlib_converters()
fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(111)
times = [datetime.datetime(2021,1,1)]
while len(times) < 721:
times.append(times[-1]+datetime.timedelta(seconds=120))
y_vals = np.arange(101)
time_axis, y_axis = np.meshgrid(times,y_vals)
shape = (len(y_vals)-1,len(times)-1)
z_data = np.arange(shape[0]*shape[1])
z_data.shape = shape
im = ax.pcolormesh(time_axis, y_axis, z_data)
fig.savefig('bug_report.png')
Actual outcome
This traceback comes from my Matplotlib 3.4.1 conda environment:

Expected outcome
Output from my Matplotlib 3.3.2 conda environment:
Matplotlib version
- Operating system: Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS
- Matplotlib version: Code breaks in v3.3.3 and v3.4.1; Code works in v3.3.2
- Matplotlib backend: Qt5Agg
- Python version: 3.7.7
- Other libraries: Pandas v1.2.3
Matplotlib and python were installed with Anaconda for Linux 64 Bit. (conda 4.9.2)
