matplotlib-users Mailing List for matplotlib

Hi,
I am very new to python, so sorry if the question is basic.
I am also very new to Django. I followed the instructions on
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.6/intro/tutorial01/ through tutorial 4
to set up a sample webpage and play around with it.
I would like to generate plots via matplotlib and display the png files on
the webpage. However, I am not sure where to start. I looked at the
cookbook here:
http://wiki.scipy.org/Cookbook/Matplotlib/Django
but I was not sure which urls.py the recommended change needs to be made to
and where charts.py should go.
Does anyone know how to embed an image in a webpage. Is there a step by
step tutorial I could follow. I found some tutorials but they were dated
and do not work with the latest versions. I am using for python 2.7.5,
matplotlib u'1.4.x' and django 1.6.2.
Thanks,
Aarthi

The Qt4 backend can use either PySide or PyQt. It should use either if
they're installed.

Hello,
does matplotlib can use a PySide backend ?
I ask this question because PySide is installed with Anaconda.

Hi Oliver, thanks for the reply. I know about contourf and have tried it
before but couldn't get it working, I don't really understand the data
objects in python (I come from a PHP background) i.e what a numpy object is
and so on, so I was hoping someone with more experience in this could help
me out, hopefully take a quick look through my script and find a silly
mistake.
As far as my script is concerned you can just save it as a py file and run
it with the params I have specified if you wanted to see it working so its
not like I have done nothing and just asked for someone to write my entire
script, I have spent quite some time trying to work it out for myself :)
Thanks anyway

Is the following what you need?

Florian,
I think that you need to add the ax.titleOffsetTrans to the ax.transAxes transformation.
ax.text(0,pos[1],letter,transform=ax.transAxes+ax.titleOffsetTrans,va=va)

Dear users,
I would like label my subplots with a horizontally left-aligned letter 
(wanted by the journal) and the normal, centered axes title, which 
should both be vertically in line. The following example does not work:
 from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
 import numpy as np
 fig, ax1 = plt.subplots()
 x = np.linspace(1,10)
 y = (sin(x))
 ax1.plot(x,y)
 def subplot_label(ax, letter, title):
 title = ax.set_title(title)
 pos = title.get_position()
 va = title.get_va()
 ax.text(0, pos[1], letter, transform=ax.transAxes,
 verticalalignment=va)
 subplot_label(ax1, 'a)', 'This text is not aligned with the label')
Which property of the axes title am I missing?
Thank you for your help
