John> My motivation for this wa I didn't want the black borders John> around all the points in my plot. This is a common wish -- just as a warning, using a linewidth of 0 does not work across backends; for example, I think it fails on PS. The standard way to do it is to set the edgecolors to be the same as the facecolors. To support this, I also added a boolean kwarg, faceted=True and when False, sets the edge colors to be the same as the facecolor. I also added your linewidth changes. axes.py revision 1.103 or later ... Thanks! JDH
Attached is a patch to collections.py and legend.py to make the auto-legend stuff smarter. A couple of caveats. The new code doesn't makes as much use of C++ -- there might be performance issues for plots with large numbers of points, although I haven't encountered any. I don't think any of my tests include plots with LineCollections, so there is a reasonable chance that code in _auto_legend_data has not been exercised. Other than that, it seems to do the trick. John
Attached is a patch to the axes code that adds an extra paramter, linewidths, to the scatter method. My motivation for this wa I didn't want the black borders around all the points in my plot. This allows you to do: scatter(y, x, c=z, linewidths=(0.0,)) and get some really pretty plots, similar to using pcolor/imshow, but works when your points are not neatly aligned in a grid. John

The reasons for are complicated and have to do with an optimization to make exponential ticking faster, and I won't go into them right now. Suffice it to say that it is a bug, but there may be a workaround Do any of the suggestions here help? http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/faq.html#TEXTOVERLAP Note you can also control the "pad" in points of the offset of the ticks from the xaxis ticks = ax.xaxis.get_major_ticks() for tick in ticks: tick.set_pad(6) or if you prefer set(ax.xaxis.get_major_ticks(), pad=6) The default pad is controlled by an rc parameter tick.major.pad : 4 # distance to major tick label in points tick.minor.pad : 4 # distance to the minor tick label in points See http://matplotlib.sf.net/.matplotlibrc JDH
I have a question about tick formatting. I have a semilogx plot and if I resize the xticks using locs , labels = xticks () set(labels , size=ticksize) I like the size and the font, but the exponents (10^0) run into the axis. If I size them using xticks([1,10],[r'10ドル^0$',r'10ドル^1$'],size=ticksize,family='sans=serif') I can get the position right (i.e. not running into the axis), but I have to set the ticks manually and I can't seem to get away from a math font I don't really like. Is there a better way to do this? Thanks, Ryan

Something about my > system doesn't like the SystemExit being raised. yes, it's an annoyance of ipython whenever you run anything with a SystemExit in it. The .14 release of ipython has a new -e switch to ignore exit calls, so you don't get all that noise (use 'run -e fooscript'). If you feel adventurous, I put yesterday a release candidate here: http://ipython.scipy.org/dist/testing/ Let me know of any problems you encounter though, I'd like this to really fix all known glitches for a while so I can concentrate only on new development.

TeX/LaTeX plus dvipng is really the right way to solve this problem.
Coincidentally, I have been working to incorporate tex into
backend_agg via dvipng (and into backend_ps via psfrag) and matplotlib
has a tex manager class
So if you don't mind installing tex and dvipng (on my Ubuntu system is
is simply
> sudo apt-get install dvipng
then you can use the matplotlib texmanager class to handle the system
calls, cacheing results it's seen before and so on
>>> from matplotlib.texmanager import TexManager
>>> m = TexManager()
>>> pngfile = m.make_png("\TeX\ is Number $e^{-i\pi}$!", dpi=100)
>>> print pngfile
/home/jdhunter/.tex.cache/5b723d2ea8d0f15af94ec585aece1582_100.png
You need to make sure you have texmanager revision 1.2 from CVS (or
later).
Of course if you are on a platform where TeX is not easily installed,
this won't help much. In that case, you can use matplotlib to create
the math images for you, but I would use the mathtext parser directly
rather than the whole figure / axes api.
Let me know if you still want/need to use mpl for this and I'll give
you some pointers.

I am running these lines inside ipython, if that matters. Something
about my system doesn't like the SystemExit being raised.<br>

My second question is this. I am running Linux here at home and the

dvipng? I may need to use windows at school.<br>

I use Irfanview for Win32 image stuff. You can easily batch convert a ton of images to most any format. I like png, but if you need a gif Irfanview can make that easily enough.

Jeff -- Post a small script that breaks and let us know versions of python, matplotlib, and wxPython and which OS your using. --Matt
Hello, I am running a wxpython application and I am using matplotlib to plot some data. It seems that when I plot a graph, then close it and plot another graph my program crashes. The error is "This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information." Do I need to close a graph in a special way before I open another one? Any suggestions? Thanks. Jeff

On a mac, you can save the plot as eps, then open it with Preview.app
("open foo.eps" on the command line, or just double click on it in the
finder). You can then save it as pdf from Preview.

In a *nix environment, you can use the convert utility (command line) to make a gif out of a pdf if you really need a gif, and either convert also for png->pdf, or epstopdf for eps->pdf. I'm sure that similar utilities exist for win32 (you don't specify your platform), but convert is part of ImageMagick, which you can install for win32 if you need it. Regards, f
Is there a way to represent graphs from matplotlib in the GIF orPDF form? Thanks Stephanie Wilson
John: We are using Python and Matplotlib in our current autonomous vehicle entry ( http://pegasusbridge.blogspot.com/ ) into the DARPA Grand Challenge race and this for several reasons: - Python is close to pseudo-code and the learning curve for newcomers into the team as well as veterans is very smooth. - Python is providing glue and libraries for all kinds of needs expressed within the project (so far) - Matplotlib is helping us debug IMU, GPS other sensors readings while collecting data. We used Octave but people want to "stay" within Python to see the data near real time. There is something to say also about the fact that with Matplotlib, you don't have to "learn" a new language even though learning Matlab is trivial for instance. - for the moment, Python is fast enough on Windows but we do not feel we would be losing too much sleep having to switch to a different OS or having to create modules that are specifically faster in C. Using the Windows OS helps in debugging the programs since our team is very distributed geographically and they generally use Windows on their laptops. We don't know how far we will go but with a team so small we could not have made it without Python this far.

I have to delete the build directory and the matplotlib directory in site-package and the cvs version is working fine. In other hand I have a segmentation fault when I tried to use mpl. my 2 cents, N.
I am current using Matplotlib in several projects, including a project of autonomous rough terrain vehicles, a project predicting California coastal winds, and a project that organizes earth science data from several NASA satellites. Matplotlib is very flexible and versatile, and has a well designed foundation. It is the best graphics package I have used in my 20 years of research career. John Hunter and his army of volunteers did an excellent job developing Matplotlib in such a short time. But the software needs to be developed further to expand the capabilities. Money invested on developing Matplotlib will be well spent, and eventually will save the funding agencies because the scientists will not have to buy the expensive commercial softwares like Matlab and IDL. I have heard several very positive comments on Matplotlib from our JPL Python community.

If you are using python for high performance or scientific computing, could I ask you to send me a blurb (one or two sentences) on what you are using it for and if you have any publications or references related to this work (the refs don't have to be specifically about the python stuff) please include them (extra points for bibtex). I am writing some grant text justifying python in scientific computing and would like to have a range of examples across disciplines to provide. If I could get these today or tomorrow that would be very helpful! Please send these to me off list. Thanks! JDH
