# define the window layout

          [sg.Canvas(size=(figure_w, figure_h), key='canvas')],
          [sg.OK(pad=((figure_w / 2, 0), 3), size=(4, 2))]]

window = sg.Window('Demo Application - Embedding Matplotlib In PySimpleGUI', force_toplevel=True).Layout(layout).Finalize()

# add the plot to the window

event, values = window.Read()

I had problems with console freezing if I click the "OK" button (the program terminates but the window is still alive therefore makes windows 10 think it is not responding). I fixed it by adding window.Close() in the end.
