This kind of error typically occurs when the graphics context is being accessed outside of the event loop. This may work for other backends, but on Mac OS X in such a case the graphics context is not defined. The solution may involve reorganizing tight_layout such that the graphics context is not being accessed outside of the event loop. -Michiel. --- On Tue, 5/1/12, Elliot Saba <sta...@gm...> wrote: From: Elliot Saba <sta...@gm...> Subject: [Matplotlib-users] tight_layout() causes RuntimeError on OSX To: "Matplotlib Users" <mat...@li...> Date: Tuesday, May 1, 2012, 3:04 PM Hey guys, I'm trying to use tight_layout() to fix up some subplot grossness, but whenever I call it, I get: Traceback (most recent call last): File "test.py", line 16, in <module> plt.tight_layout() File "/Users/<username>/.homebrew/Cellar/python/2.7.3/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/pyplot.py", line 1056, in tight_layout fig.tight_layout(pad=pad, h_pad=h_pad, w_pad=w_pad) File "/Users/<username>/.homebrew/Cellar/python/2.7.3/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/figure.py", line 1415, in tight_layout pad=pad, h_pad=h_pad, w_pad=w_pad) File "/Users/<username>/.homebrew/Cellar/python/2.7.3/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/tight_layout.py", line 117, in auto_adjust_subplotpars tight_bbox_raw = union([ax.get_tightbbox(renderer) for ax in subplots]) File "/Users/<username>/.homebrew/Cellar/python/2.7.3/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/axes.py", line 8396, in get_tightbbox bb.append(self.title.get_window_extent(renderer)) File "/Users/<username>/.homebrew/Cellar/python/2.7.3/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/text.py", line 743, in get_window_extent bbox, info = self._get_layout(self._renderer) File "/Users/<username>/.homebrew/Cellar/python/2.7.3/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/text.py", line 296, in _get_layout ismath=False) File "/Users/<username>/.homebrew/Cellar/python/2.7.3/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/backends/backend_macosx.py", line 164, in get_text_width_height_descent width, height, descent = self.gc.get_text_width_height_descent(unicode(s), family, size, weight, style)RuntimeError: CGContextRef is NULL I've googled around, but no answers have been found.
