titleMatplotlib allows me to do ... but DAWN's python plotting doesn't, why?

The scisoftpy plotting package is not to be confused with a replacement for Matplotlib. Matplotlib is a large and powerful python plotting package which we could not hope or desire to reproduce entire functionality of. The purpose of scisoftpy plot is to allow data to be transferred  to DAWNs plotting for a quick visualization or to be further analyzed with DAWN's plotting tool or selection region systems. It is not (yet) capable of producing the publication quality figures that Matplotlib can (although saving DAWN's plots as .svg and opening them in a suitable graphics package, such as Inkscape, allows nice figures to be produced).
