Hi all,
I am trying to place small images (say 128x128) at specific (x,y)
positions on the plotting canvas. I'm sure it is possible, but I
don't know what the magic incantation is. I don't want anyone to
spend time on figuring it out, but if you do know the answer, please
let me know.
Thanks,
Stéfan

Hi Gaël,
I mostly work in an interactive shell (ipython), and if I simply call
a blocking function (like raw_input)
from the prompt, it also blocks the event loop of the matplotlib gui backend
(it happens for GtkAgg, but not for TKAgg. I'm not sure with other
backends, but I thought
TKAgg is a special case.)
So I wanted to call a raw_input (or other blocking function) in an
interactive shell
without freezing the figure.
Hmm, maybe I'm missing something and there has been an very easy way to do it.
My understading was that the gui event loop waits (without processing
gui events)
until the commands entered in the prompt finish.

Hi all,
I encountered problems with the Arrow patch, which broke sometime 
recently. I'm attaching a fix (diff against svn r4999).
Best,
Mike
